  • "Summary: In this introductory lesson, the humanities are defined as the ways in which man records his ideas, feelings and his search for truth. They deal with matters that never go out of style. The humanities raise questions, then do not answer them, but challenge us to draw our own conclusions. The ways in which man records his ideas and feelings are evident in literature, drama, music, painting and sculpture, architecture, and dancing. Lesson 1."
