    Given the attacks on the humanities by the right (?Goethe is not taught anymore!?) and the left (?Why teach dead white males??) over the past decade, how can we teach and research in the humanities in the years to come? The underlying theme of the eight essays and addresses, four of them published for the first time, is that teachers in the humanities are the spokespersons of the university?s history and future, doing the heavy lifting in teaching the bulk of the students those intellectual skills?critical reading, writing, culture, and thought?that will serve them no matter what their major or future employment.
