	20th WCP: The Conflict of Paideias in Gadamer's Thought
		Traditional paideia, grounded in an unaware habit or disposition of the soul, was vulnerable when sophistic paideia brought reasoned argument against it.
		The new paideia was the education proffered by the sophists.
		As the art of argumentation, the new paideia led to what Gadamer frequently calls the "sophistic enlightenment," which was precursor and partial cause of the European movement of the 18th century.

	To Understand God Truly
		Paideia requires conversion, "the wheeling around of the 'whole soul' toward the light of the Idea of Good, the divine origin of the universe" [7] Conversion has to happen in order for one to have intuitive insight into the Good.
		Hence, although particular, concrete occasions of paideia, the actual practices of paideia, we might say, appear to be both many and enormously diverse, they are "really" all identical with one another because they are practices through which people are shaped by one selfsame reality, the Good.
		It follows, third, that theological schooling as paideia focuses on the student because it supposes that for the student to understand God some kind of shaping or forming of the student is required.

	Greenberg - Art, Science, Arete - TLI #63
		Arete originally referred to a coupling of morality, valour, and a sense of duty possible only in a nobleman.
		But although the concept of arete and the means by which it may be attained changes as society changes, it was always deeply connected with education.
		What I am arguing is that arete involves a balanced integration of the essences of art, science, and technology, and that this balance is at the heart of the creative transcendence of disciplinary boundaries.

	Between Athens And Berlin: The Theological Education Debate
		In Greek paideia meant a process of "culturing" the soul, schooling as "character formation." It is the oldest picture of education to be found in Christianity and has been powerfully retrieved in the current debate about theological education.
		Paideia, after all, also involved inquiry, especially into texts (classically, Homer; then also the poets; then the philosophers, especially Plato), the study of which was deemed to be the indirect way to come to know the Good itself.
		We saw that paideia, both in its most ancient form and in its Platonic revision, was ordered to public life in the sense of political activity in the public realm, while in its Hellenistic form it had become ordered to the private realm of individual inward religiosity.

		For example, in ancient Greece according to an aristocratic arete; or, a university education in the Middle Ages; or, education by multiversity in the twentieth (and presumably twenty-first) century.
		Instruction in gymnastic, music and mathematics was no longer to be joined to the noble tradition of the "castle"; it was replaced by the "school."
