The Concept of Culture
Taylor’s (1871) defines culture as “ complex whole which includes knowledge, belief, art, morals, law, customs and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man as a member of a society.”
Newmark (1988) defines Culture as ‘the way of life and its manifestations that are peculiar to a community that uses a particular language as its means of expression’.
AlJundi (1982) makes a distinction between culture and civilisation: “the former involves beliefs, customs, traditions, laws, value-systems, etc. Whereas the latter generally involves progress and development at the level of scientific inventions, technology, industries, education, etc.”
