Abstract | Offers a critique of Alan Bloom's ideas on the Great Books approach to general education presented in "The Closing of the American Mind." Questions Bloom's assertions about the types of students who benefit from the approach and his rationale. Suggests that exposure to conflicting viewpoints via Great Books reinforces a relativist stance. (AYC) |
