The Quadrivium! :)
The quadrivium is a classical framework for education in the liberal arts, consisting of four subjects: arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy. It follows the trivium, which includes grammar, logic, and rhetoric, and together they form the foundation of a comprehensive education in the medieval curriculum. The quadrivium focuses on quantitative and qualitative aspects of understanding the world, emphasizing the interconnectedness of these disciplines. This framework was central to the education of scholars in the Middle Ages and remains influential in discussions of liberal arts education today.
