Humanities: The Magazine of the National Endowment for the Humanities
What’s the National Endowment for the Humanities up to these days? Plenty, of course, and its Humanities magazine provides plenty of information on such matters. The Recent Favorites are a great place to start, containing links to articles from the magazine, such as “The Trail of Hannah Arendt” and “The Otherworldly Malamud.” Moving along, visitors can delve into the Classics, which include some meditations on Alexander Von Humboldt and the plain speaking mode of Carl Sandburg. Visitors also shouldn’t miss the Browse Back Issues, which offer access to dozens of back issues. Each issue also features the fabulous Impertinent Questions feature, which profiles scholars’ responses to questions about Buffalo Bill Cody, Thomas Jefferson, and Adam Smith.
