“Spelunking with Plato,” the Arts and Sciences podcast of the University of St. Thomas, offers conversations with faculty and friends of the university who can help us see more clearly the truth of things and devote our lives to the pursuit of Wisdom. By drinking deeply through dialogue from the Catholic intellectual and spiritual traditions we hope to order our lives more completely to the truths of reality, so that we can become fully free and come to a vision of the Good.

Wonder, ‘Ordered Pedagogy,’ Brick Laying, and the Catholic University (Randy Smith)


In this conversation with Randy Smith, we consider the role of wonder in liberal learning as well as the challenges and the joys of being an interdisciplinary scholar.  We also explore the distinction between wonder, curiosity (curiositas), and a well ordered desire for knowledge (studiositas) as well as the proper ordering of the disciplines—the humanities, mathematics, and the sciences—within the university.
