    資料紹介

    Although many people say that globalization leads to cultural homogeneity, such a situation can’t happen. Every culture changes their style with adopting foreign cultures or coexists with foreign cultures. Sometimes we have mixed another culture into our own cultures, and then create new types of cultures. That’s because we have variety of thoughts, customs and so on, and each culture have influenced each other. Therefore cultures cannot be homogenized.
    First of all, there are so many kinds of thoughts, behaviors, and customs depend on such factors as geographic, religion, race, climate, and so on. If we have same kind of materials, they cannot be the same but they have characters. For example, English become one of the international languages today, but non-native speakers often speak English in dialect. Sometimes new types of English like Singlish which is Singapore style English occurs. Another example is literature. Many literary works includes cultural-based nuance. In other words, writer’s cultural backgrounds influence their works. I heard an ultimate story in Cultural Anthropology class. In this class, one of the Shakespeare’s famous stories “Romeo and Juliet” was introduced. When an anthropologist told the story to Tiv tribe people who are in South Africa, they read it as good moral story, though it is simply known as tragedy in other countries. This is because Tiv tribe people have so many different customs from European countries, thus
    they often read it with opposite meaning. Like this, same culture sometimes becomes or is changed into other types of cultures.
