Our topic this year is the medieval aits curriculum. In the first term we shall consider the classification of knowledge in the Middle Ages, the origins and organization of the medieval arts university in the thirteenth century, and the programme of studies and the methods of teaching. We shall also read some of the standard texts that were taught there. In the second term we shall examine developments in the arts curriculum in the fourteenth century and some of the innovations that arose in logic, metaphysics, and natural philosophy, and ethics.
