In Principio

Unique in its concept, In Principio, will grow with children through the grammar, dialectic, and rhetoric stages of learning as they journey through the text of John 1:1-7 in two parts. Part one is simply the text of John 1:1-7 featuring artwork by Durer, Fra Angelico, Cranach, Giotto and Ghiberti. In part two, readers will research ancient medieval and renaissance Latin manuscripts for the text of John 1:1-7 and feel accomplishment when they discover they can actually read ancient Latin manuscripts. The readers’ preferred English translation may be scribed on the lines provided, or if readers are very brave, they may translate it themselves.
