Including standout works from the twenty-first century as well as
essential readings in science, The Well-Educated Mind offers brief,
entertaining histories of six literary genres-fiction,
autobiography, history, drama, poetry and science-accompanied by
instructions on how to read each type. The annotated lists at the
end of each chapter preview recommended reading and encourage
readers to make connections between ancient traditions and
contemporary writing. In her best-selling work, The Well-Trained
Mind, Susan Wise Bauer provided a parents' guide to classical
education for home-schooling children. In The Well-Educated Mind,
she takes the same elements and techniques and adapts them to the
use of adult readers. Followed carefully, her advice will restore
and expand the pleasure of the written word.
