Doing humanities in nineteenth-century germany, edited by efraim podoksik, is a collaborative project by leading scholars in german studies that examines the practices of theorising and researching in the humanities as pursued by german thinkers and scholars during the long nineteenth century, and the relevance of those practices for the humanities today. Each chapter focuses on a particular branch of the humanities, such as philosophy, history, classical philology, theology, or history of art. The volume both offers a broad overview of the history of german humanities and examines an array of particular cases that illustrate their inner dilemmas, ranging from ranke's engagement with the world of poetry to max weber's appropriation of the notion of causality.
