      ab: The article presents the author's views on the present and the future conditions of modern humanities. In this context, he offers a look at a conference that took place in 1968, with the theme Future of Modern Humanities in 1968. Harry Levin, the opening speaker was concerned to put the present crisis related to humanities in historical prospective. William Rilay Parker, another speaker discussed the historical context of the crisis of universities. In correlation with the statement by Parker, the author stresses the importance of understanding the social benefits of humanities within a class and an economic context. According to him, Parker's call centers on its force upon classical definition of the public sphere.
