The Canterbury Tales - MASTER CLASS
The 100 Greatest Books of All Time - A Master education could be had by spending 15 minutes a day reading from a collection of books
As I release this educational material, I think back to how easy it is these days to educate one ‘s self. In times past, you would have to have access to funds and influence to gain access to these works of classic and greatest literature.
Forty years ago, I began working on a project with my mentor which was the recording and documentation of the Greatest Teachings of All Time. Many institutions over the years have released many of these now out of copyright works and it is said, if you were able to retain a working knowledge of a particular 100 of the greatest books, you would have what would be considered a knowledge equal to that of having accomplished a master’s degree from a university.
Welcome as you join me on this journey to your self-taught master’s education. Putting in the time is up to you, but if you have less than an hour to listen, you have what it takes to begin and accomplish your master’s education.

Thank you so much for this one Jovan. From the first words of the prologue to the inclusion of the wife of Bathe, I was transported back to the early 70"s when I took a Chaucer class with the dreaded chairman of the English department. My paper for the class was entitled "Antifeminism in the Wife of Bathe". Dr. Fiester told me he would start we with a C if I came up with 10 references so I brought him 23. The paper was graded an A- and I felt like a million bucks. Thanks for this memory and hope you have a happy holiday season.
TY JOVAN
