A New Deal for the Humanities: Liberal Arts and the Future of Public Higher Education

A New Deal for the Humanities brings together twelve prominent scholars who shed light on the many concerns swirling around the humanities today--exploring the history of the liberal arts in America, their present state, and their future direction. The volume focuses on public higher education, for it is in our state schools that the liberal arts are taught to the greatest numbers, where the decline of those fields would be most damaging, and where their strength is most threatened.
