N2  - 'The Battle of the Classics' criticizes contemporary apologetics for the humanities and presents a historically informed case for a decidedly different approach to rescuing the humanistic disciplines in American higher education. It uses the so-called Battle of the Classics of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries as a springboard for crafting a novel foundation for the humanistic tradition. The text argues that current defences of the humanities rely on the humanistic disciplines as inculcators of certain poorly defined skills such as 'critical thinking.'
