Abstract

No area of humanistic endeavor makes plainer than the study of the eighteenth century that the generic divisions among disciplines and the traditional institutional frame-work of specialized university departments are incongruent with the prismatic nature of current leading research. No century - dominated as it was by the comparativist met-aphor in the study of human activity - makes plainer the pressing need for establishing workable models to assess the efficacy of individual, and competing hypotheses, and for determining how these are to be placed within a well-articulated, cross-disciplinary, or as yet unspecialized, con-text.
