Description

“… this book tries to offer the general and academic reader an idea of what life was like for students and professors in and around North American humanities departments of public and private universities from the early 1950s to the early seventies, with an outlook on the subsequent decades. The time focused on then, is that between several years before the speculator Sputnik-induced increase of government support for higher education, ushering in a heyday of the humanities, and the dwindling of federal funding in the early 1970s in tandem with the economic downturn.”
