SORU:

How did the meaning and content of the term culture begin to change at the end of the seventeenth century?


CEVAP:

With the changes in social life at the end of the seventeenth century, the meaning and content of the term culture began to change. Culture, in the eighteenth century, began to turn into a term that expresses social values and behaviors, and thus is used in the social sphere. Consequently, the term gains the meaning of “the effective development of the human mind.” In other words, the term culture, which was previously used to mean “cultivation,” or “breeding” in relation to agricultural activities, has now turned into a universe of meanings that includes layers of meanings such as the development
of the human mind, the development process, the means of progression, and the mental state of the mind.
