Time, Doubt and Wonder in the Humanities addresses a serious lacuna
in humanities studies. It affirms our commitment to wonder and
adventure in living by confronting the subtext that lies within the
manifold worldly, social and political vicissitudes and
tribulations. The essays in this volume speak to our times and make
sense of the idea of temporality in general by using wonder as an
inclusive metaphor, which engulfs fortitude, anguish, joy,
providence, submission, precariousness and revulsion. Wonder could
lead to curiosity to inspiration to doubt to questioning to
indignation to seeking of justice. The book offers a benchmark in
thinking about why we must take literature and art seriously in
times of great political turmoil. It affirms that the shape and
contour of literary studies shall depend on how the coming
generation maintains a delicate balance among inspiration, doubt
and faith.
