I also include some very helpful observations made by Augustine on the topic, which is to say the way in which Biblical piety relates to philosophy.

These are previews from my website AthensCorner.com of in-depth discussions on the Western world's greatest books in philosophy and political philosophy.  There are also occasional previews for my Fathers & Sons series on the website devoted to guiding and assisting fathers who themselves want to educate their sons in the great books, and so the emphasis is upon examples of excellence of virtue.
