    About this ebook

    Engaging Worlds: Core Texts and Cultural Contexts asks what do we learn of texts, cultures, and the world’s dynamics when we read core texts, widely and deeply, in core-structured programs of the world’s colleges and universities? What books, what arts, what associations and institutions, what sciences, what religions, what cultures, what educations, what citizens, what scholars, are we preparing for the future through an education in core texts that engages our worlds? The answers offered in these selected proceedings are drawn from the widest possible spectrum of institutions and disciplines who, through core programs, offer horizon-expanding liberal educations.
