Recent devaluations of a liberal arts education have raised questions about the traditional concept of Bildung, a defining model of self-cultivation rooted in 18th and 19th century German philosophy and culture. This volume explores the epistemological origins and cultural expressions of Bildung, highlighting its historical significance and contemporary relevance in the humanities. The editors encourage us to examine how the classical concept of Bildung was historically imagined and applied in its original German context, providing a comprehensive overview of its development and impact. The volume draws on interdisciplinary scholarship to present a holistic understanding of Bildung, encompassing its philosophical foundations, educational practices, and societal implications. By exploring the historical and cultural dimensions of Bildung, the editors aim to shed light on its enduring value and relevance in today's world.
