The Humanities: Culture, Continuity & Change, Volume II: 1600 to the Present

by Henry M. Sayre

See context and make connections
across the humanities
The Humanities: Culture, Continuity and
Change, now in a third edition, has become in a very short
period of time the best selling Introduction to Humanities text on
the market. With its message of “see context and make
connections across the humanities,” student are able to enjoy
many “ah-ha” moments as they piece together the
world’s intricate, multilayered, and beautiful history
through the arts. Believing that students learn best by remembering
stories rather than memorizing facts, author Henry Sayre employs a
narrative storytelling approach to the humanities, deftly conveying
multifaceted cultural experiences in a way that students can
understand and will remember—throughout the course and
beyond.
This third edition helps instructors and
students by connecting the learning objectives in each chapter to
MyArtsLab, an online learning program which brings the arts to
life. Key learning tools within MyArtsLab include new listening
guides for the musical selections, Closer Look tours of works of
art, architectural panoramas and simulations to help students
visualize key monuments and how they were built, and more!
