2.
How does Nicolson explain the idea of liberal education, general knowledge and
the notion of literary men?​

Answer 1

Liberal education has undefined contours, no rigid walls, and no restrictions on free thinking.

• Liberal education has no set boundaries, no impenetrable walls, and no limits on the exercise of free thought. Even if the subject does not exist on the syllabus, it permits the mind to wander into areas that might be of interest to the student.
• Another phrase that is frequently misinterpreted is "general knowledge." It is not necessarily having a broad knowledge in all areas or becoming an expert in a single field. If someone has studied topics that are closely related to their primary field of interest in depth, they might be said to have general knowledge.
• The word "general knowledge" is another by the same reasoning, someone who reads literature in a variety of genres, picks up a second or third language, and studies authors who have published books about their primary interests will be seen as a literary man.
