The Making of the Humanities Overview

The Making of the Humanities is an excellent three volume series that covers the development of the humanities from about 1400 to 2014. I’ve read through the volumes for the past few years and think this series contains an indispensable wealth of knowledge for both newcomers and seasoned veterans of historical studies.

This trilogy of books is the result of three conferences which were held in 2008, 2010, and 2012. The organization of the original conference started in 2007 and was largely undertaken by Peter van Ormondt and Karin Gigengack of the ILLC (Institute for Logic, Language & Computation).
