W. Martin Bloomer details the processes, exercises, claims, and contexts of liberal education from the late first century b.c.e. to the third century c.e., the epoch of rhetorical education. He examines the adaptation of Greek institutions, methods, and texts by the Romans and traces the Romans' own history of education. Bloomer argues that whereas Rome's enduring educational legacy includes the seven liberal arts and a canon of school texts, its practice of competitive displays of reading, writing, and reciting were intended to instill in the young social as well as intellectual ideas. 606 $aEducation$zRome$xHistory 606 $aEducation, Humanistic$xHistory 606 $aLatin language$xStudy and teaching$xHistory 610 $aancient rome. 610 $aathens school. 610 $aclassical pedagogy. 610 $acomposition. 610 $acurriculum. 610 $aeducation. 610 $aformal education. 610 $agrammar. 610 $agreek education. 610 $ahellenism. 610 $ahumanities. 610 $aimperial rome. 610 $alatin studies. 610 $aliberal arts. 610 $aliberal education. 610 $aliteracy. 610 $amanhood. 610 $amanly character. 610 $amanual. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $apedagogy. 610 $areading. 610 $arecitation. 610 $arhetoric. 610 $aroman empire. 610 $aroman school. 610 $aself control. 610 $awriting. 610 $ayouth. 615 0$aEducation$xHistory. 615 0$aEducation, Humanistic$xHistory. 615 0$aLatin language$xStudy and teaching$xHistory. 676 $a370.937 700 $aBloomer$b W.
