Funded Activity Summary

The institutions of the humanities: History of the humanities in Australia. This project aims to understand how institutions shaped and made possible the humanities as a field of knowledge-making in Australia. Research on the history of the humanities and its institutions is under-developed in Australia and internationally. This project will focus on the history of universities, libraries and learned academies since the Second World War to demonstrate the importance of the humanities in social and economic well-being. The project expects that an historically-nuanced understanding of institutions that support the humanities will enable scholars and policy makers to better organise them so the humanities thrive in the future.
