Summary:"Scholarship and Freedom argues that these two very broad concepts must be thought together, with freedom seen as the enabling condition of scholarship and scholarship as the most refined and disciplined form of such fundamental freedoms as inquiry, thought, and expression. The book's three main sections each explore an aspect of scholarship through an examination of the career of a particular scholar: W. E. B. Dubois, who serves here as an example of scholarly character formation; Bernard Lategan, whose extraordinary career illuminates the centrality for the practice of scholarship of the concept of evidence; and Linda Nochlin, whose almost single-handed founding of the discourse of feminist art history illustrates the capacity of scholarship both to destroy and to create."
