Framing the reception of German Jewish thinking in the second half of the twentieth century as a parallel story to the rise of the modern humanities, \u003ci\u003eHomo Temporalis\u003c\/i\u003e also highlights how these foundational temporal concepts illuminate the causes of the present crisis in the humanities and its disciplinary limitations in the age of biopolitics and the Anthropocene.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e1.
