Not long ago, it was understood that universities and culture were
intimately related. However, to a large extent, that understanding
has faded. Culture and the University confronts this situation.
Written by three leading scholars of higher education and the
philosophy of higher education, the book opens the debate about the
cultural purpose of universities and higher education. The authors
argue that the university should be and can be an institution of
culture, of great cultural significance in the digital age, and
exercise cultural leadership in society. This wide-ranging and
polemic text addresses a range of subjects including
environmentalism, citizenship, post-truth, the ethical implications
of technology and feminist philosophy. The authors build on the
work of key philosophers of the university from Aristotle,
Nietzsche and Heidegger to Donna Haraway, Terry Eagleton and Martha
C. Nussbaum to conceive of an entirely modern vision of the
university. This is a must-read for anyone with an interest in the
future of higher education and the university.
