- Abstract:
- This paper explores the challenges associated with the publication of public and publicly engaged humanities scholarship. It is the product of a working group convened in February 2020 by Routledge, Taylor & Francis and the National Humanities Alliance to identify and discuss model practices for publishing on public and publicly engaged humanities work in higher education. Its central thesis is this: the spread of publicly engaged work via academic publication holds the potential to benefit all, across communities and humanities disciplines. Public humanities work encompasses humanities research, teaching, preservation and programming, conducted for diverse individuals and communities. Publicly engaged humanities work, meanwhile, encompasses humanities research, teaching, preservation and programming, conducted with and for diverse individuals and communities. The innovative nature of this work, driven, often, by co-equal partnership with community members and institutions, broadens the horizons and inclusivity of humanities knowledge. It also, however, creates certain challenges that make publication both more complex and more important.
