The Greak Books philosophy of education advocates the teaching of canonical and "classic" works, primarily of literature and philosophy. This method undergirds the present-day Core Curriculum, particularly the central classes of Lit Hum and Contemporary Civilization, although the latter has not always been guided by it.
Great Books is also the title of a book by alum David Denby on his experiences retaking the Core.
