Lewis to describe the fabric of ideas that shaped Western Civilization. For centuries, a \u201cGreat Books\u201d education lay at the heart of what it meant to be educated. It was the education of the Church Fathers, of the Medieval Church, of the Reformers, and of all the Founding Fathers of the United States.<br \/>\n\u2013 It is a\u00a0<b>CLASSICAL EDUCATION<\/b>, based on the great books of western civilization.<br \/>\n\u2013 It is a\u00a0<b>CHRISTIAN EDUCATION<\/b>, which sees the history and literature of the West through the eyes of the Bible and historic Christianity.<br \/>\n\u2013 It is an\u00a0<b>INTEGRATED HUMANITIES CURRICULUM<\/b>, bringing together literature, history, philosophy, doctrine, geography, and art.<br \/>\n\u2013 It is a\u00a0<b>HOMESCHOOL<\/b>\u00a0oriented curriculum, made by homeschoolers with the needs of homeschooled in mind, including flexibility, affordability, and ease-of-use.<br \/>\nWe bring a master-teacher into your home and encourage parents to gain an overview of Western Civilization themselves by watching the video lessons with their children.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><b>HOW does Old Western Culture work?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Old Western Culture is a video course. It is built around a master teacher, Wes Callihan. With decades of teaching experience, he guides students through the story of Western civilization.\u00a0<em>The Aeneid<\/em>\u00a0contains 12 video lessons (approx 30-40 min each).<br \/>\nEach lesson begins with a brief review before jumping into summary, commentary, analysis, and inter-disciplinary connections of the works covered. After each lesson, students complete the assigned readings and answer comprehension questions in the Student Workbook or online workbook.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><b>WHY do people love Wes Callihan?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Wes Callihan is a master story teller! With a remarkable ability to communicate a passion for history and literature, he makes profound ideas accessible, relevant, and interesting. Also known for his distinctive \u201crabbit trailers,\u201d forays into funny and obscure historical anecdotes, which have a way of showing up at the dinner table. (After all, rabbit trails are \u201chooks for the imagination and memory.\u201d) Wes Callihan is a true classical scholar, fluent in both Latin and Greek. He lectures only from the notes in the margins of his worn copies of the Great Books. \u201cMeet him\u201d through\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=1E8PGchwuGA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">THIS VIDEO TOUR<\/a>\u00a0of his personal library, which doubled as a mini-lecture!<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Prerequisites\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><em>Old Western Culture<\/em>\u00a0is intended for mature and discerning students. We recommend this course for ages 14 and up. The course will deal with mature themes such as paganism, sexual immorality, battle scenes (mostly in actual reading), and classical paintings.\u00a0<em>Old Western Culture<\/em>\u00a0is meant to equip your child with a Biblical lens from which to process these themes. We assume your child has a working knowledge of the Bible and basic Christian doctrine.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Credits\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The Aeneid is 1\/2 High School Credit in either literature or history. Each year of\u00a0<em>Old Western Culture<\/em>\u00a0is a double-credit Humanities course which is most commonly broken down into 1 Literature credit and 1 History credit. The double-credit assumes that the student will watch all the videos, read the required reading, answer the daily worksheets, and take 4 exams (one for each unit). This a robust course academically, and requires a fair bit of reading. Wesley Callihan will coach your student on how to approach the reading in the video. The average daily reading load is 30-40 pages.<br \/>\nAs an \u201cintegrated humanities\u201d course,<em>\u00a0Old Western Culture<\/em>\u00a0will constantly be incorporating history, literature, theology, philosophy, art, and art history, all through the eyes of the Great Books.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Related Products<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/the-romans-the-complete-course\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: The Complete Course<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/the-romans-the-aeneid-set\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: The Aeneid Set<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/the-romans-the-historians-set\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: The Historians Set<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=15089&amp;action=edit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: The Nicene Christianity Set<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/the-romans-the-early-christianity-set\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: The Early Christianity Set<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/romans-the-aeneid-dvd\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: The Aeneid DVD<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/romans-the-historians-dvd\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: The Historians DVD<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/romans-early-christianity-dvd\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: Early Christianity DVD<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/romans-nicene-christianity-dvd\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: Nicene Christianity DVD<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/the-romans-the-complete-dvd-set\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: Complete DVD Set<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/the-romans-the-aeneid-reader\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: The Aeneid Reader<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/the-romans-the-historians-reader\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: The Historians Reader<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/the-romans-early-christianity-reader\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: Early Christianity Reader<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/the-romans-nicene-christianity-reader\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: Nicene Christianity Reader<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/romans-the-aeneid-workbook\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: The Aeneid Workbook<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/romans-the-historians-workbook\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: The Historians Workbook<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/the-romans-early-christianity-workbook\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: Early Christianity Workbook<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/the-romans-nicene-christianity-workbook\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: Nicene Christianity Workbook<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/classic.powertactics.com\/product\/the-romans-the-complete-workbook-set\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Romans: The Complete Workbook Set<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><em><b>ROMANS: THE AENEID<\/b><\/em>\u00a0unpacks one the greatest classics of the West, the\u00a0<em>Aeneid<\/em>\u00a0of Vergil, whose impact profoundly influenced both Roman society and medieval Christianity.
