FORMA Symposium


  • Belmont Abbey College 100 Belmont Mount Holly Road Belmont, NC, 28012 United States (map)

At CiRCE’s second symposium in January 2025, we will explore the Quadrivium. In this upcoming FORMA conference and subsequent journal, scholars from the home to the university will come together to explore both the traditional role of the Quadrivium in classical education and how we can practice these arts today. Topics may include (but are not limited to): better understanding one of the four arts within the Quadrivium, contemplating challenges we face in teaching the Quadrivium in a contemporary context, exploring different ways the Quadrivium was approached or understood within the tradition, considering a master teacher within the Quadrivium, considering a contemporary college or school as a case study for teaching the Quadrivium, casting a vision for the Quadrivium in American education, etc.

Dr. Eliot Grasso will be presenting on the role of music in education.
