The Best of The New Humanities Reader
We will publish here the best work that students have produced using The New Humanities Reader. We offer these essays not as models of what students should be saying when they use The New Humanities Reader, but rather as examples of what students should be doing with their writing. So, as you read these essays, we recommend that you pay attention to how the student writers are making connections between the assigned readings, their own ideas, and the outside world.
If you feel that you have written a particularly strong essay in response to issues raised by The New Humanities Reader, please send your work as an attachment to newhumanitiesreader@gmail.com. We'd love to see what you've done and, if we think your work is of the highest caliber, we'll publish it here on the web, where it can be read by your peers, your family, and by other students and teachers across the country.
