Narration Makes Us Human
An idea is the living thing that captures the heart; its not the other way around. An idea tamed through analysis is no longer the wild thing of the jungle; rather it is the beast behind bars, not quite fully monster, but not quite fully tame. Real ideas capture us and weighty ideas devour us, keeping us up at night.
Benjamin Lyda


Engines Make No Sense in Pieces
The best education should be incarnational, uniting mind and body, form and content, ideas and words.
Benjamin Lyda


Beauty, Simplicity, and Tradition
Beauty, Simplicity, and Timelessness are the three core values that drive this program. We, teachers, lead souls by Beauty . . .
Benjamin Lyda


Scriptorium Beginnings
Much ink has spilled upon the pupil's page / He glassy eyed and gawking at the stains.
