The Object of the Study of Humanities discusses the grounding and present orientation of the Humanities in the midst of an epistemological crisis. Acknowledging the impossibility of reaching an abstract synthesis of the humanistic studies, the book exhibits the internal diversity of its disciplines (literary studies, assyriology, psychology, postcolonial studies, philology, etc.). A non-systematic, non-synthetic approach is proposed that nonetheless claims a certain unity of discourse, as it responds to the suggestion that it is possible to speak of the Humanities as a concept with its own internal coherence.
