Brilliant Harvard print definition on culture

I urge every fellow coursemate to see the exquisite brilliance in the definition hypothesized then revealed of culture below. If there was such a thing as a Hand of God a la Maradona to exist for scholastic brilliance; THIS HAS TO BE IT!!!!!!!

"Culture consists of patterns, explicit and implicit, of and for behavior acquired and transmitted by symbols, constituting the distinctive achievements of human groups, including their embodiments in artifacts; the essential core of culture consists of traditional (i.e. historically derived and selected) ideas and especially their attached values; culture systems may, on the one hand, be considered as products of action, and on the other as conditioning elements of further action."


Take special note of the definition portion in green and italics. I especially loved this part of the definition, if you saw what I saw. It made the Hand of God besides of scholarly culture, but out of people in stark realization as I still am trap.

This definition might be useful for Assignment 4 on Intercultural Conflicts!




Cheers
Que bravo!
