Will the Traditional Humanities Survive in the 21st Century?

Maria Tymoczko

University of Massachusetts, Amherst, USA, tymoczko{at}complit.umass.edu

The nature of the university in the new century will be determined as much by epistemological, philosophical, and ideological factors shaping our views of knowledge as by changing technologies. This article reviews developments in the meaning of knowledge occurring through the 20th century and explores their implications for the ‘traditional’ humanities and academe as a whole, using the field of Celtic Studies as a case in point.

Key Words: epistemology • globalization • humanities • positivism
