In this presentation at the Conference of Miletus, Matt Ogle explains what the transcendental idea of beauty. Beauty is, in short, the apprehension of truth by the senses and the recognition that the world is orderly and life is meaningful, realities to which classical teachers should direct their students' attention.

Matt Ogle is the Head of Classical Education at Thales Academy. He has taught both the humanities and the sciences and has served in a variety of leadership roles over his long career in education.

Matt delivered this conference presentation at the Conference of Miletus on July 11, 2022. The Conference of Miletus was a series of short, TED-talk-style lectures from members of the Thales Academy leadership team discussing what is true, what is good, and what is beautiful and the importance of these transcendental ideas to classical education.

The theme music is Vivaldi's "Four Seasons" performed by John Harrison and the Wichita State University Chamber Players.
