The 2009-10 academic year at the UW-Madison is the Year of Humanities, designed to raise the profile of the humanities, both on campus and among the general public, by presenting what the humanities are and how they enrich our lives through teaching, scholarship and community engagement. Professor Levine challenges traditional ideas about the role and requirement of art and artists in a democratic society with her book “Provoking Democracy: Why We Need the Arts.”
