Let’s hear it for #Humanities
If you ask : what is the value of the humanities? I would say that it teaches you to read with acuity, to analyse wild claims, to argue responsibly to questions to which there are no right answers. Do we need the humanities? Let’s hear it for yes!!!

@mz_ayses To sell, first you need to show people what you can do. Jane also teaches as do we. The main obstacle to the use and acquisition of creative skills is (as usual) an economic system that favours profit over creativity.

It would be ridiculous to suggest that more support for the arts & humanities wd stop political violence. But if we want to “reset the political rhetoric” - there’s no magic wand. We need, among other things, the skills & attitudes of the debates embedded in the arts & humanities

We have many great modern architects and designers but very few sights compare for magisterial simplicity with this beauty from the 11th century. Art lifts the soul and makes the heart dance in every generation @DCMS
