Abstract

Researchers in other disciplines use art resources. Interviews with a variety of researchers in the fields of medicine, literature, history, psychotherapy, and archaeology provide some insights into when, why, and how scholars turn to the study of art. Through informal discussions about their research experiences, these researchers reveal their ways of thinking and pursuing research, the relationship of their own disciplines to art and the frustrations and rewards of pursuing inter- or multi-disciplinary research.
