A collection of essays written by arts and humanities scholars
across disciplines, this book argues that higher education has been
compromised by its uncritical acceptance of our culture's standards
of productivity, busyness, and speed. Inspired by the Slow
Movement, contributors explain how and why university culture has
come to value productivity over contemplation and rapidity over
slowness. Chapter authors argue that the arts and humanities offer
a cogent critique of fast culture in higher education, and reframe
the discussion of the value of their fields by emphasizing the
dialectic between speed and slowness.
