réf. A9780231147903Hardback. New. Money and support tend to flow in the direction of economics science and other academic departments that demonstrate measurable "progress." The humanities on the other hand offer more abstract and uncertain outcomes. A humanist's objects of study are more obscure in certain ways than pathogens and cells. Consequently it seems as if the humanities never truly progress. Is this a fair assessment By comparing objects of science such as the brain the galaxy the amoeba and the quark with objects of humanistic inquiry such as the poem the photograph the belief and the philosophical concept Volney Gay reestablishes a fundamental distinction between science and the humanities. He frees the latter from its pursuit of material-based progress and restores its disciplines to a place of privilege and respect. Using the metaphor of magnification Gay shows that while we can investigate natural objects to the limits of imaging capacity magnifying cultural objects dissolves them into noise. In other words cultural objects can be studied only within their contexts and through the prism of metaphor and narrative. Gathering examples from literature art film philosophy religion science and psychoanalysis Gay builds a new justification for the humanities. By revealing the unseen and making abstract ideas tangible the arts create meaningful wholes which itself is a form of progress. hardcover
