Description

On this episode Patrick and Amanda interview Benjamin Lyda. Benjamin is the author of Scriptorium Writing, a progymnasmata curriculum and consultant for his company Living Classical. In this conversation we talk about poetic knowledge as "knowledge of the heart", and how this conception of knowledge shapes how we approach writing in our homeschools.
