Abstract

The text starts from a brief reflection on the origins and Greek legacy of humanism in the Western tradition of philosophy, goes through an understanding of our humanity based on the choice of reason against violence, and ends in praise of humanist studies as a way of overcoming violence in our culture, based on a comparison of the text “Reinventando as humanidades”, by Sérgio Paulo Rouanet (in As razões do Iluminismo), with some texts by Eric Weil on humanist studies.
