In recognition of the 'crisis of the university', Newman said that the university is a place where universal knowledge is taught, a field for the pursuit of total knowledge, educational activities aimed at the integration of knowing. For this reason, university education should concentrate on the knowledge education. Second, the purpose of the university is to cultivate intellectuals, not experts. Theology achieves the integrity of truth beyond the limits of scholarship. Academic (science) and religion (theology) do not contradict each other. Theology is one discipline and is the foundation of all disciplines. According to Newman, a university is a place of study.
Knowledge is based on religiosity, and illative sense with a religious character operates to make the whole perception. All knowledge is organically related, and religious truth exists at its highest level. The exploration of knowledge requires freedom to pursue truth. Knowledge is of value in itself and is pursued by its own purpose. The summary of the discussion so far is as follows.įirst, according to Newman, knowledge produces the development of the mind. This study aims to analyze the idea of university education and liberal arts education aimed at 『The Idea of a University』 written by Newman.
