"Humanism and America" by Norman Foerster is an edited collection of essays written in the early 20th century. It argues for a disciplined, classical humanism as a corrective to modern scepticism, scientism, and cultural disarray, especially in the United States. The volume surveys ethics, religion, literature, the arts, and education through contributions from leading critics and scholars.
