Kant, Goethe, Schiller and other eighteenth-century German
intellectuals loom large in the history of the humanities-both in
terms of their individual achievements and their collective
embodiment of the values that inform modern humanistic inquiry.
Taking full account of the manifold challenges that the humanities
face today, this volume recasts the question of their viability by
tracing their long-disputed premises in German literature and
philosophy. Through insightful analyses of key texts, Alexander
Mathas mounts a broad defense of the humanistic tradition,
emphasizing its pursuit of a universal ethics and ability to render
human experiences comprehensible through literary imagination.
