Abstract:

- William F. Ogburn's theory of «Cultural Lags» has suffered from misinterpretation and simplification in sociological literature. As a consequence it has been considered outdated, notwithstanding the fact that it is a structural interpretation of social change and not, perfunctorily, a description of two «cultures». The author, already conscious of such misinterpretations, presented a brief essay, published two years before his death, on suggestions and more specific hermeneutic statements regarding the theory. These uncover its usefulness as a conceptually versatile instrument, extremely imp

Abstract:

In the 1920s, Ichikawa Sadanji and Morita Kanya conducted two rounds of kabuki tours in China, which clearly revealed the mechanism of misinterpretation and misplacement in the (re)construction of the cultural identities of Chinese and Japanese theatre. Both had been modelled upon each other in the context of intercultural communications in the early twentieth century. Some Chinese theatre critics indicated that Chinese xiqu should absorb the values of modernity identified by them in the Morita troupe’s kabuki performances. In contrast, Ichikawa Sadanji’s tours in Northeast China and his subse

SYNOPSISFive hundred and eighty schoolgirls living in a small North Indian industrial town were screened using the EAT-26. Although twenty-nine per cent scored above the threshold for the questionnaire (≥ 20), closer scrutiny of the pattern of responses revealed misinterpretations of a large number of questions possibly on a conceptual basis. Linguistic and conceptual pitfalls inherent to cross-cultural epidemiological research are discussed with reference to previous work.

EFL students many times made mistakes in using the English expressions and led to misinterpretations or even acceptable message of their utterances. This is due to their lack of cultural awareness or their understanding towards L2 culture.

Anacrusis, also known as lead-in notes, establishes the emotional atmosphere, directs the speed, and involves the listeners. Nevertheless, numerous choral conductors face difficulties with these components because of their limited grasp on rhythm, resulting in performances that are lacking in emotiona

Given the current situation where English textbooks used in the joint training program of higher vocational colleges lack sufficient representation of Chinese culture, it becomes imperative to incorporate elements of Chinese culture into English teaching. This integration is not just a matter of filling a void but a strategic move towards fostering a more comprehensive and balanced understanding of cross-cultural communication. By leveraging China Daily，the most preeminent and influential English-language multimedia platform in China, students can better appreciate the depth and richness of th

Abstract:

While genuine apologies have been widely studied across various cultural and linguistic contexts, ostensible apologies—those used not to express sincere regret but to maintain social harmony—remain underexplored. These speech acts can lead to misinterpretations and communication challenges, particularly in Persian-American interactions, where cultural expectations around politeness differ significantly. In Persian, ostensible apologies are deeply embedded in the cultural practice of ta’ārof, influencing how politeness and social hierarchy are negotiated. Despite their prevalence, Persian osten

Abstract:

This article examines the significance of the causes and effects of pragmatic issues in the translation process. The article emphasizes the necessity of considering the contextual aspects of language in translation, that is, understanding the target audience of the speech and the cultural context. Pragmatic issues generally express the interconnection between language units and culture, which directly influences the translator’s decision-making. The article examines how these issues are expressed in translation and the role they play in communication. In addition, it also discusses the ambigui

The rapid development of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is profoundly changing the form and paradigm of foreign language education. GenAI technology, represented by DeepSeek, provides technical support for personalization, immersion, and intelligence of foreign language teaching by virtue of its natural language processing, multimodal content generation, and cross-cultural simulation capabilities. From the three dimensions of “teaching reconstruction,” “learning innovation,” and “education upgrading,” this paper systematically analyzes the internal mechanism of GenAI empowering for

Understanding the future consequences of artificial intelligence requires a holistic consideration of its cultural dimensions, on par with its technological intricacies and potential applications. Individuals and institutions working closely with AI, and with considerable resources, have significant influence on how impact is considered, particularly with regard to how much attention is paid to epistemic concerns (including issues of bias in datasets or potential misinterpretations of data, for example) versus normative concerns (such as societal and ecological effects of AI in the medium- and

Abstract:

Despite fierce criticisms, ‘rural’ and ‘urban’ still constitute powerful narratives around which our society is structured. The ‘formal reality’, however, frequently disregards the cultural nature of these concepts, elevating them to the role of objective spaces apt to serve as acceptable guiding perspectives. While the analytical inadequacy of rural-urban ideations is well-documented, the phenomenon of formal-cultural conflation remains much less explored. Acknowledging that ideational space of social representations can only exist through the practices of discursive interaction, this paper’s

Abstract:

This study explores the nuances of politeness across two linguistic and cultural contexts: Bengali and US English. Politeness, a fundamental aspect of social interaction, is deeply influenced by cultural norms and values, shaping how individuals navigate relationships and maintain harmony. Drawing on Brown and Levinson&rsquo;s politeness theory, the research investigates, through structured interviews assessing perceptions of politeness, how the principles of &quot;face&quot; are applied in these languages.

The terms Atman in Hinduism and soul in Christianity both pertain to the immaterial aspect or essence that is believed to exist within a living being. While these terms are used interchangeably within the cultural context of India, it is essential to recognize that they carry distinct meanings and connotations. Using mimetic literary criticism basedon a comparative analysis of Andrew Marvell’s A Dialogue between the Soul and the Body and Adi Shankara’s Tattvabodha, this essay uncovers the
