The Humanities Reader: Where Literary Cultures Meet provides
students with a collection of interdisciplinary readings from
various genres that are not usually seen as interrelated,
challenging readers to examine familiar readings with a new
perspective. The anthology introduces students to the study of the
humanities and its exploration of humankind. The book is organized
into five distinct units. Unit 1 underscores the universality,
longevity, and value of parables and fables. Unit 2 spotlights
Middle English writing and the classic frame story with emphasis on
the work of Geoffrey Chaucer. Unit 3 allows students to explore
early short story writings by Washington Irving and Nathaniel
Hawthorne. Unit 4 exposes readers to the genre of autobiography,
with selections from two quintessential Black authors, Frederick
Douglass and Langston Hughes. The final unit examines contemporary
works and themes through Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery," Toni Cade
Bambara's "The Lesson," and Zora Neale Hurston's "Sweat." Designed
to help students evaluate their world and develop their free
imagination of the mind, The Humanities Reader is an ideal resource
for foundational courses within the discipline.
