Big Research Questions about the Human Condition : A Historian's Will Hardback
by Arne Jarrick
Hardback
Description
The book is a manifesto-like essay aiming to redress some globally present drawbacks characterizing current research in the humanities: 1.
Fragmentation and thematic volatility; 2. A reluctance to acknowledge that humanities research is a truth seeking enterprise as all scientific research; 3.
A certain unwillingness (or inability) to ask clear questions and to provide distinct answers to these questions.
The book consists of three parts: A. Introduction, where the problem and the purpose of the book is presented; B. six chapters, each presenting a certain topic that I suggest that humanist scholars gather around with sustained efforts; C.
Conclusion with some words of how to proceed and a section discussing what the humanities or should and are not or should not be.
