Humanities, Culture, and Interdisciplinarity: The Changing American Academy

Mehr zum Buch

Exploring the interplay between interdisciplinarity, humanities, and culture, this book traces their evolution from colonial colleges to contemporary scholarship. It aims to redefine these relationships while advancing the concept of "American cultural studies." Featuring case studies on the effects of interdisciplinarity across literary studies, art history, and music, as well as examining American studies, African American studies, and women's studies, it ultimately assesses the impact of new scholarly practices on humanities education and the undergraduate curriculum.
