In the last few decades, the various disciplines of the humanities (history, linguistics, literary studies, art history, media studies) have encountered a broad range of challenges, related to the future of print culture, to shifts in funding strategies, and to the changing contours of culture and society. Several publications have addressed these challenges as well as potential responses on a theoretical level. This coedited volume opts for a different strategy and presents accessible case studies that demonstrate what humanities scholars contribute to concrete and pressing social debates about topics including adoption, dementia, hacking, and conservation. These ?engaged? forms of humanities research reveal the continued importance of thinking and rethinking the nature of art, culture, and public life. 517 $aEngaged Humanities 606 $aHistory of art / art & design styles$2bicssc 606 $aGeneral & world history$2bicssc 606 $aGender studies, gender groups$2bicssc 610 $aHumanities, cultural studies, media studies, cultural history, (art) history, gender studies 615 7$aHistory of art / art & design styles 615 7$aGeneral & world history 615 7$aGender studies, gender groups 700 $aSwinnen$b Aagje$4edt$01187146 702 $aKluveld$b Amanda$4edt 702 $ade Waal$b Renée$4edt 702 $aSwinnen$b Aagje$4oth 702 $aKluveld$b Amanda$4oth 702 $ade Waal$b Renée$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910583592503321 996 $aEngaged Humanities$93033282 997 $aUNINA
