Humanities in 2015: Why We Need Them & How They Contribute to Being Human

Editat de Michael F Shaughnessy
en Limba Engleză Hardback – dec 2014
There is a crisis in the Humanities. This crisis encompasses the definition of the humanities, the depth, breath and scope of the humanities and the fact that the humanities has been diluted by various tangential fields over the last few decades. The authors address the need to recapture the beauty of the humanities, the importance of the humanities and the impact of the humanities on this, and future generations. Scholars in various fields (art, music, etc.) have endeavoured to represent their discipline, while at the same time galvanising the need for a more serious study of the humanities and the relevance and importance of the humanities. There are few books out there representing and advocating for this field. This text is a stellar attempt to resurrect the field of the humanities and highlight their importance.
