Composers and Artists by Historical Era
Composers Scheduled Where They Fit by Historical Era
When artists and composers are scheduled only on the basis of which historical era they fit in, it forces some difficult decisions because much of the art and music we'd like to focus on was created during short bursts of time. Notice who has to be left out to make room for ancient art and early music. Charlotte Mason's goal was to fill a child's mind with beauty and great ideas, and the best way to do that isn't to box in choices in art with the constraining limits of historical chronology.
