Abstract

This collection of articles on Humanities and Business Ethics is the second virtual special issue of the Journal of Business Ethics. It is a curated selection of previously published papers aimed at inspiring future contributions on Humanities and Business Ethics. This new section of the journal explores artifacts that provide timely and timeless insight into the essential culture and values of business. The ten articles in this VSI draw on seven humanities disciplines: anthropology, architecture, art, classics, history, language, and literature. The questions raised by these papers are relevant and timely, but like the humanities, they are also important and timeless. I hope these reflections will inspire you to read each paper for yourself and to imagine your own contribution to the Humanities and Business Ethics section of the Journal of Business Ethics.
