This is a new feature on the blog, highlighting something from the Goodwin Library Collection every Friday.
The Hedgehog Review is an interdisciplinary, academic journal of critical reflections on contemporary culture, published three times a year by the Institute for Advanced Studies in Culture at the University of Virginia.
Each issue addresses a single theme with articles, interviews, book reviews, and a bibliographic review written by leading scholars from throughout the disciplines. By focusing attention from many vantage points on one topic, the journal strives for both the breadth of the fox and the depth of the hedgehog. Working against the current fragmentation and isolation of academic inquiry, this journal poses hard questions, pursues knotty controversies, and pushes intellectual discussions beyond their current impasse. The current issue pursues the topic "After Secularization."
Where does the title come from?
"The fox knows many things, but the hedgehog knows one big thing."--Archilocus
