c7.11

Right type of education² as Newman further tells us, is that which makes one a 'gentleman,' whom he characterises as one who has a cultivated intellect, a delicate taste, a candid, equitable, dispassionate mind and a noble or courteous bearing in the conduct of life.³ These qualities are the results of large knowledge. And this knowledge, according to Newman, comprises not only subjects such as Grammar, Logic, and Astronomy, but also important and abstruse ones, such as Philosophy and Theology.⁴
