Can civic engagement rescue the humanities from a prolonged identity crisis? David D. Cooper's essays raise questions about the relevance and roles of humanities teaching and scholarship, the moral footings and public purposes of the humanities, engaged teaching practices, institutional and disciplinary reform, academic professionalism, and public scholarship in a democracy. Destined to stir discussion, the questions Cooper raises in this book are uncomfortable and, in his view, necessary for reflection, renewal, and reform.
