英语词汇“liberal arts”的英英意思、用法、释义、翻译、读音、例句、短语、词组-英语词典

The liberal arts are basic college subjects in the humanities, like English, history, and philosophy. Most universities don't consider professional subjects, like engineering, to be part of the liberal arts.

If you enroll at a liberal arts school, you'll get an education in general knowledge, learning how to read, write, and think about a variety of topics. Many universities distinguish between subjects by having separate colleges for liberal arts, sciences, and professional areas of study. In classical times, the liberal arts — or in Latin, the artes liberales, were the areas of knowledge that were seen as essential for a free person. Liberales, in fact, means "free."
