FHI 25 | The Humanities and the Press: The Project of Reshaping Humanities Scholarship at Duke and Beyond

2024 marks the 25th anniversary of the establishment of the John Hope Franklin Humanities Institute at Duke University. This year also coincides with the 100th anniversary of Duke. To mark these dovetailing anniversaries, FHI will host a series of conversations throughout the year engaging some of the most significant humanities scholars of our time - all formerly or currently affiliated with Duke - to historicize the University's significant investment in the humanities in the 1980s, reflect on what such investment made possible alongside national and international developments in the field, and propose future directions of humanities scholarship and teaching within and beyond Duke.

Join us for a conversation with Steve Cohn (former Director, Duke University Press), Ken Wissoker (Senior Executive Editor, Duke University Press), and Reynolds Smith (former Executive Editor, Duke University Press).
