Modernization and digital globalization have proven to mark major
thresholds where paradigmatic shifts and realignments take place.
This volume aims to capture the reconfiguration of humanistic study
between the forces of global integration and cultural
diversification from a full range of disciplines within the
humanities and social sciences. The key issue is discussed in three
major parts. The first chapter examines transnational
interpolations of the humanities as potential indicator for a
globalizing humanistic research. The second chapter deals with
humanistic revisions of modernity with and against globality. The
third chapter discusses the ambiguous constitution of cultural
diversity as a complement and counter-movement to global
integration, ideologically moving between social cohesion and
exclusion. The final chapter outlines what the threshold-crossing
from modern to global humanities will mean for the future of
humanistic research. The multidisciplinary study of culture within
the history of the humanities documents and reflects the mobility
and migration of its concepts and methods, moving and translating
between disciplines, research traditions, historical periods,
academic institutions, and the public sphere.
