Towards a Synthesis of Humanisms in a Cosmopolitan Age: The late philosophy of Edward Said

In Humanism and Democratic Criticism (2004), Edward Said tried to reconcile two forms of humanism: modern socio-critical humanism and the more classical humanism of self-formation (Bildungshumanismus).

520 |a In Humanism and Democratic Criticism (2004), Edward Said tried to reconcile two forms of humanism: modern socio-critical humanism and the more classical humanism of self-formation (Bildungshumanismus). To create a new space for this formative humanism, Said tried to conceive a new philosophical framework, explicitly distancing himself from postmodern relativism, using the works of Giambattista Vico, Leo Spitzer, and Erich Auerbach. It is especially in the work of Auerbach that he discovered important inspiration for a synthetic theory that combines both forms of humanism. This article examines to what extent Said’s synthetic theory is useful for philosophy, literary sciences and humanism. It compares Auerbach’s and Said’s work and shows in what direction Said was thinking when he was trying to transcend postmodernism.
