Best Humanities Education Podcasts We Could Find
The study of human culture is called humanities. This is a broad subject which covers philosophy, literature, religion, art, music, history and language. Since the human beings began studying and recording humanity, different areas arose including psychology, sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, psycholinguistics and other social science subjects. Humanities education gives people the understanding of how humans act across the globe and how humans used to live, before the modern civilization came into existence. The recent archaeological finds and archaeological digs which might give us the answer to early unresolved mysteries are being discussed by experts in some of the podcasts. Humanities are an interesting subject and listening to these podcasts encourage people to make sense of them. There are several podcasts to choose from, so feel free to listen to the podcasts in this catalog, which may help you get a better understanding of society and humanities, anywhere and anytime.
