2012-13 VIDEO SERIES
Arts & Humanities Insights: Volume One

An answer to the persistent question: What does research look like in the arts and humanities?

Prominent scholars speak directly into the camera and share insights on a wide range of research influences and experiences in this intimate series of first-person, documentary style video portraits. This inspiring series of observations on the systematic investigation into existing or new knowledge helps illuminate the research of scholars engaged in humanistic discovery- conducting research, reviewing literature, observing people, teaching classes and mentoring the next generation of arts and humanities scholars.

These videos seek to: personify faculty in the College of Arts and Humanities; exemplify research topics investigated and tools used by arts and humanities scholars to produce knowledge; and remind the public of the long-term impact of artistic and humanistic research.
