    More Poet than Policeman: Newman and Education 'in a large sense of the word'
    (Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra, 2019) Schrimpton, P. (Paul)
    Thinkers such as MacIntyre affirm the importance of Newman’s educational classic The idea of a university in reminding the university about its nature and purpose. But Newman has a wider view of education: in his educational writings and practice he draws attention to those aspects of the university which contribute to its well-being. He focuses especially on its pastoral dimension, the nurturing of virtuous and fully-formed individuals by means of living arrangements, tutoring systems which provide individual guidance on the art of living well, and the genius loci of the institution.
