The "seven liberal arts" are essentially the subjects taught in a classical education curriculum. This curriculum was particularly popular during the Medieval period, and was considered the curriculum that should be taught to a free man.

These were:

-Grammar

-Rhetoric

-Logic

-Arithmetic

-Geometry

-Music, Harmonics, or Tuning Theory

-Astronomy and Cosmology

Grammar, rhetoric, and logic were part of the "artes sermocinales", or the science of language.

Arithmetic, geometry, musics, harmonics, or tuning theory, astronomy and cosmology, were part of the "artes reales", or the scientific-mathematical discipline.
