Narrative and truthan ethical and dynamic paradigm for the humanities /[electronic resource] :Barry Emslie. - 1st ed. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2012. - 1 online resource (247 p.)

Includes bibliographical references and index.

An overview -- Marxist humanism: (Hegel, Marx, Luk�acs, Eagleton, Habermas) -- Women and writing: (women theorists, women novelists, Jane Austen, Charlotte Bront�e) -- Freud: (science as narrative, a perverse and singular teleology, certainty masquerading as doubt) -- Philosophy and fatherland: (German transcendentalism, aesthetics, and nationalism) -- Realism: (Brecht, sport, the Bible, Lenin, conspiracy theories) -- Death.

In this book, Emslie establishes that narrative explanations are to be preferred over non-narrative in the humanities. They are more truthful in two senses. They both correspond more closely to reality and allow inference as to normative values. This is particularly the case when aesthetics is added to the mix. Emslie examines the matter over a series of discrete fields: Marxist Humanism, Feminist literary praxis, Freud, German idealism, discourse ethics, realist aesthetics, Brecht, and sports.
