Humanitas is aninterdisciplinaryjournal published by The Academy of Philosophy & Letters. It is known for its affiliation withtraditionalist conservatism.
The journal seeks to foster among its readers and contributors a spirit of open inquiry, a willingness to subject cherished doctrines to challenge and look beyond conventional categories of thought.Humanitas explores issues ofmoral andsocial philosophy, epistemology, and aesthetics, and the relations among them, such as the moral and cultural conditions of knowledge. Favorable to an historical understanding of life,Humanitas explores the tension and union between universality and particularity, and the interdependence and opposition of creativity and tradition. Fruitful new thinking will resist reductionism and will, for example, distinguish between contrasting strains within modernity and postmodernity.
Joseph Baldacchino andClaes G. Ryn were the founding editors of this journal in 1987. Originally published by theNational Humanities Institute,Humanitas was subsequently published by the Center for the Study of Statesmanship at theCatholic University of America. The Academy of Philosophy and Letters now publishes the journal with the assistance of thePhilosophy Documentation Center.[1] The current editor is Luke C. Sheahan.
Humanitas is abstracted and indexed in Academic OneFile, Academic Search Premier, Philosopher's Index,PhilPapers, and ProQuest Research Library.[2][3]
