Mission
Statement
The Franklin Humanities Institute is dedicated to supporting humanities, arts, and
interpretive social science research and teaching at Duke. We seek to encourage serious
humanistic inquiry throughout the entire University and to instill the general public with
an awareness of the centrality of the humanities to the quality of human life and social
interaction. Through a collaborative model and the use of thematic, problem-focused
frames, we encourage humanists to engage in interdisciplinary conversations and
cooperative approaches to research, teaching, and learning. We also promote scholarship
that enhances social equity, especially research on race and ethnicity in their most
profound historical and international dimensions. In this mission, we are inspired by our
namesake, historian John Hope Franklin. |
