Welcome to It's A Classical Life. This blog is dedicated to celebrating the beauty of the classics in our everyday life, through classic literature, art, music and past-times. My name is Kirsty and I'm the tea-drinking, classics reading, Australian creator and founder of this little corner of the internet where my aim is to help other like-minded souls enrich their own lives by drawing on the wisdom and inspiration of the classics.
"That is part of the beauty of all literature. You discover that your longings are universal longings, that you’re not lonely and isolated from anyone. You belong." – F. Scott Fitzgerald
Do you want to feel like you belong in this life? I certainly do, which is why I created this blog! If you, like me, believe that we can look to the classics to help refine our everyday, modern lives into ones that are joyous and fulfilled, then you have come to the right place. I love to explore classic books and art, music and past-times and look to the past to create a wonderful, sophisticated life that does not rely heavily on money or material possessions. The Italian culture and British classic novels are amongst some of my favourite things to discuss, as are classic style and past-times or leisure activities.
From ancient classics to modern ones, come with me as we cultivate a classical experience in our modern lives. As Bryan Kozlowski says in his book, "The Jane Austen Diet":
"The mark of a truly grounded Austen-ite is simply their willingness to grow, to become a better, stronger, happier version of who they already are."
Sounds good, don't you agree?
Visit me on Instagram for more classics in your life. You can also email me at classical.kirsty@gmail.com if you have any questions, concerns or simply want to introduce yourself and say hi.
I hope that your visit to It's a Classical Life leaves you with some new inspiration on how you too can live a simple, refined life inspired by the classics.
