Education and belief in two essays by Dorothy Sayers

This volume brings together two distinct subjects. “The Lost Tools of Learning,” first delivered as a talk at Oxford in 1947, introduces Sayers’s case for classical education for children. “The Mind of the Maker” turns to the Early Christian Creeds, considering their role as statements of faith written in opposition to heresies and intended to preserve the Gospel message for later generations. Together, the pieces connect questions of how knowledge is taught with how religious belief is articulated and carried forward.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Those interested in arguments for classical education and its approach to children’s learning.
  • Readers exploring the history and purpose of the Early Christian Creeds.

Book overview

THE LOST TOOLS OF LEARNING was originally given as a talk by Dorothy Sayers at Oxford University in 1947 on the benefits of a classical education for children. It is great brief introduction to the advantages of a classical education.

THE MIND OF THE MAKER is a book which examines the Early Christian Creeds, which were written as statements of faith in defense against heresies. These creeds were carefully written to keep the true Gospel message alive and well for future generations.
