The Very Idea of a University: Aristotle, Newman, and Us
The Very Idea of a University: Aristotle, Newman and Us -- Alasdair MacIntyre
‘The superficial generalist is as much the product of a defective education as the narrow specialist’. In this article Alasdair McIntyre argues strongly in favor of Newman’s idea of a university and against criticism from J. M. Roberts and B. Reddings that Newman’s notions were either never possible or are now no longer relevant.
