This volume of key essays explores, with intellectual and emotional
rigour, the nature of values and their place in the humanities. As
Ernst Gombrich writes in the preface, 'There are moments in the
life of an academic when he feels prompted to get up from his
university chair and mount the pulpit ... ' Ranging in subject
matter from the philosophy of Hegel to wartime propaganda
broadcasts, to the future of museums and the role of reason and
feeling in the study of art, Professor Gombrich dynamically argues
for the ideals of tolerance and pluralism and against the idols of
determinism and relativism that would threaten all forms of the
very culture that defines us as human beings.
