Humanities?

[edit]

"Humanities" might be a better descriptor for a classical education, at least in English. Anmccaff (talk) 18:41, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

(Humanism is a philosophical and ethical stance that emphasizes the value and agency of human beings, individually and collectively, and generally prefers critical thinking and evidence (rationalism, empiricism) over acceptance of dogma or superstition.)

Ummm...yes. You have presented no evidence that the school in question had adoppted this stance, but considerable evidence of the other interpretation, that "humanities." was meant. Anmccaff (talk) 21:06, 19 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I think that "humanistiches Gymnasium" should be translated as humanistic gymnasium, see for instance the links from de:Humanismus as a reference. --NearEMPTiness (talk) 04:08, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
