Big Research Questions about the Human Condition A Historian's Will【電子書籍】[ Arne Jarrick ]

＜p＞My basic message can be put in a straightforward way: humanities scholars should improve their way of asking questions. Their questions about the human condition need to be as clear and simple as possible in order to enable unambiguous answers. Simple without being simplistic, nuanced without being embroiled ? that is the ideal. Unambiguous answers (not to be confused with irrefutable answers) are much wanted, although not always possible to attain. Moreover, if one wants the questions to be highly significant for the understanding of the human condition, there should not be too many questions. Even in this respect, there is much to be wanted in today’s humanities research. Instead of gathering around a limited set of profound questions and holding on to them until the answers begin to appear, generally the humanist guild scatters its scientific energy on too many disparate things ? replacing them far too often with hundreds of new questions, ‘perspectives’ and ‘problematisations’. ．．．楽天市場のショップで商品詳細の続きを見る
