Document Summary

Cultural anthropology: human culture every aspect, early anthropology: primitive society current anthropology: also, modern urban time and space get compressed = reason: globalization society . Internconnetcted: ethnographic fieldwork: try to join the daily activity participant-observation, culture shock. Laura bohannan: shakespeare in the bush: challenge the shakespeare is a universal idea but different: people/different culture have a different interpretation. Not only words are difficult to translate but the idea (ghost, many brother"s wife/ no. Universal people love stories (everyone is excited)/ sense of justice/ desire for companionship/ revenge) assumption. But problematic: but in my country assumption against her own culture. Only people from the authority (showing others the importance of own culture) Raymond williams: culture is hard to define, because it has roots in different european. Culture languages; because it is used in different disciplines. European culture is a blatant insult to the majesty of nature ; culture is a whole way of life : but also, institutions (media/religion etc. )
