Doing Public Humanities
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-367-50017-7 (ISBN)
Combining a practitioner’s focus on case studies with the scholar’s more abstract and theoretical approach, this collection of essays is useful for both teaching and appreciating public humanities. The contributors are committed to presenting a public humanities practice that encourages social justice and explores the intersectionalities of race, class, gender, and sexualities. Centering on the experiences of students with many of the case studies focused on course projects, the content will enable them to relate to and better understand this new field of study.
The text is essential reading for undergraduate and graduate classes in public history, historic preservation, history of art, engaged sociology, and public archaeology and anthropology, as well as public humanities.
Susan Smulyan is Professor of American Studies at Brown University, USA, and former Director of the John Nicholas Brown Center for Public Humanities and Cultural Heritage.
