Abstract
The humanities have been grown tremendously over recent decades in terms of its numbers of practitioners and publications. A multitude of new approaches, avenues of research, sensibilities and interests have come rapidly under the spotlight and, at times, rapidly faded away. We explore the story of different disciplines in the humanities from a comparative perspective, by focusing on how they evolved in terms of their social and intellectual organisation. To do this we will consider the connections among topics being investigated and/or methods used over time, and the social organisation of the field in terms of how scholars picked their topics and methods, collaborated, communicated, organised their research.
