Humanities

( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)

Humanities are academic disciplines that explore human society and culture. During the Renaissance, the term primarily referred to classics, distinguishing secular studies from divinity. Today, humanities encompass fields outside professional training, mathematics, natural sciences, and sometimes social sciences, focusing on understanding the human experience.
