- Opis:
- We have no problems with using the term ‘culture’ in such phrases as ‘Polish culture’, ‘German, French, British, Japanese culture’. In the sense assigned to the concept of culture by Johann Gotffried Herder at the end of the 18th century – culture is a way of life developed by some community (people, nation). But already in the case of the European culture, problem emerges. This is fully justified as for Herder the major element of culture, making it distinctive against other cultures, was language. Is the traditional Herder’s concept of culture (can be called sociological one) still useful in the contemporary world where the dominant figures are emigrants, refugees, tourists, urban wonderers, players? Should not we look for some other concept of culture assuming, as a starting point, that the concept of culture is not merely a descriptive concept but also an operational one and therefore has a significant impact upon our perception of the world and our activity in the world? In each culture we can identify three levels of enculturation: the deep level which naturalizes certain ways of thinking and behaving; social level – when the culture is experienced by individuals as symbolic violence; and finally the level which depends on individual choices, sometimes called a taste. This third level can be called art in opposition to culture. Art stands for whatever unique and original; culture – whatever collective and traditional. Art is the engine of culture. This dynamic aspect of culture was not reflected in Herder’s concept of culture, while this is the most important feature of today’s global culture prevailing in large cities where languages, habits and religions mix, where all, including native inhabitants, feel somewhat deprived of their roots and forced to search for new roots, and who become radicant people – artists who teach us how to live in today’s culture.
