Its focus reflects the ways that similar pressures today have renewed the question of how to make the case for the public value of the humanities. The good news is that in many ways, this self-reflexive challenge is precisely what the humanities have always done best: highlight the nature and the force of the narratives that have helped to define how we understand our society - its various pasts and its possible futures - and to suggest the larger contexts within which these issues must ultimately be situated. . 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in the Enlightenment, Romanticism and Cultures of Print,$x2634-6524 606 $aLiterature, Modern$y19th century 606 $aLiterature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aCivilization$xHistory 606 $aPhilosophy$xHistory 606 $aEthnology$zGreat Britain 606 $aCulture 606 $aNineteenth-Century Literature 606 $aLiterary History 606 $aCultural History 606 $aHistory of Philosophy 606 $aBritish Culture 615 0$aLiterature, Modern 615 0$aLiterature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aCivilization$xHistory. 615 0$aPhilosophy$xHistory. 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aCulture. 615 14$aNineteenth-Century Literature. 615 24$aLiterary History. 615 24$aCultural History. 615 24$aHistory of Philosophy. 615 24$aBritish Culture. 676 $a001.309 676 $a809.034 700 $aKeen$b Paul$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0975992 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483786903321 996 $aA Defence of the Humanities in a Utilitarian Age$92222460 997 $aUNINA
