One cannot get far into Charlotte Mason’s volume One cannot get far into Charlotte Mason’s volumes without encountering the name William Wordsworth. In fact, she mentions his name 64 times in her Home Education Series, making more references to him than to any other writer. In School Education, she devotes three chapters to an in-depth exploration of “The Prelude.” In Parents and Children, for the chapter subtitled “Feelings Educable by Parents,” she can find no better source text than Wordsworth’s “Tintern Abbey.” And in Home Education, she says that the only person who can express the child’s estate better than Wordsworth is Jesus Christ Himself.

But not everyone has such high regard for this Romantic poet. The Romantics have come under attack, and Romanticism itself has been identified as the source for many of society’s ills. In an influential critique, theologian and historian Carl Trueman reveals his own exposition of “The Prelude” and offers this ominous assessment: “William Wordsworth stands near the head of a path that leads to Hugh Hefner and Kim Kardashian.”

What is the student of Charlotte Mason to make of Romanticism? Is it to be appreciated or feared?

Theologian and father Morné Marais grew up in South Africa amidst the beauty of nature. But something besides nature gave him a new appreciation for life: his heart was stirred by the words of poets. We are blessed today to share Marais’s deeply personal reflections not only on the Romantic movement, but also on the movement’s relationship to Charlotte Mason. Whether you are concerned with the fate of the West or with the next poetry lesson for your child, you won’t want to miss Marais’s thoughtful, inspiring, and most of all personal praise of Romanticism.

“Mother must have time to herself. And we must n “Mother must have time to herself. And we must not say ‘I cannot.’ Can any of us say till we have tried, not for one week, but for one whole year, day after day, that we ‘cannot’ get one half-hour out of the twenty-four for ‘Mother Culture’?—one half-hour in which we can read, think, or ‘remember.’” (A, PR3, “Mother Culture”, p. 95)

Isaiah “should be called an evangelist rather th Isaiah “should be called an evangelist rather than a prophet,” wrote St. Jerome, “because he describes all the mysteries of Christ and the church so clearly that one would think he is composing a history of what has already happened rather than prophesying what is to come.”

When Charlotte Mason read Isaiah 55, she saw not a prediction of the future but an account of the past. She saw the day that Christ stood up and cried out, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.”

J. Paterson-Smyth reflects on how Christ continues to call out even to this day:

“His voice still comes as we tramp on,
With a sorrowful fall in its pleading tones:
‘Thou wilt tire in the dreary ways of sin,
I left My home to bring thee in.
In its golden street are no weary feet,
Its rest is pleasant, its songs are sweet.’
And we shout back angrily, hurrying on
To a terrible home where rest is none:
‘We want not your city’s golden street,
Nor to hear its constant song.’
And still Christ keeps on loving us, loving all along.
Rejected still, He pursues each one.”

Charlotte Mason’s poem captures the voice of the One who rejected still, still pursues each one. Read or hear it at the profile link.

Did you know the way you mount your nature specime Did you know the way you mount your nature specimen can actually help your painting?

•Using paper the same shade as your nature journal pages aids in determining color.

•Mounting the object upright will help with perspective.

•Placing it a few feet away allows you to consider its form and gesture without being overly distracted by minute detail.

I hope these tips help with your next nature journaling session. Happy painting!
