Insights on Public Humanities
Abstract
This volume, which collects the proceedings of the international study day Intersec-
tions. New Perspectives for Public Humanities, aims at shedding light on the often
complicated and chaotic ‘texture’ of public humanities in order to foster a less mar-
ginal place for this field of study. The choice to focus the analysis on a selection of
case studies that includes history, cultural heritage, archaeology, and literature
leads to redesigning a profile whose main feature is to create bridges between spe-
cialised knowledge domains and large audiences and identifying methods and
models that can make humanistic knowledge ‘actionable’ in our society.
Keywords Public humanities. Digital humanities. Public history. Museology.
Public engagement. Public archaeology. Citizen science. Cultural heritage. Literary
canons. Knowledge design. Intersections.
