Abstract

From the beginning of the 20th century, the claim that humanities are in crisis has become common. This article reviews the main arguments that have since been made to defend the essential role of humanities in education. Likewise, there is need to critically examine the current state of these studies and rethink their contents and how they are deployed to face the challenges of the 21st century. This reflection demand looks back to the origin of humanistic studies.
