Beauty For Truth's Sake by Stratford Caldecott
On the Re-enchantment of Education
This book argues that beauty is not mere decoration but a vital path to truth and a necessary element of education and cultural renewal; modern schooling’s reduction to utility and information has impoverished the imagination and moral formation of persons. It calls for recovering a sacramental and symbolic imagination—through art, liturgy, architecture, story, and the cultivation of taste—so that learning awakens wonder, integrates intellect and will, and fosters a re-enchanted vision of reality grounded in the Christian intellectual tradition. Practical and philosophical, the work sketches how restoring beauty to the heart of education can heal fragmentation between knowing and loving and renew both personal and communal life.
