This volume is concerned with the hitherto neglected role of the
humanities in the histories of the idea of race. Its aim is to
begin to fill in this significant lacuna. If, in the decades
following World War II and the Holocaust - years that witnessed
European decolonization and the African-American civil rights
movement - the concept of 'race' slowly but surely lost its
legitimacy as a cultural, political and scientific category, for
much of the nineteenth and the first half of the twentieth century
concepts of race enjoyed widespread currency in numerous fields of
knowledge such as the history of art, history, musicology, or
philosophy. Bringing together some of the most distinguished
scholars in their respective fields, this is the first collective
attempt to address the history of notions of race in the humanities
as a whole.
