Culture

Philosophy

Philosophy includes studies of philosophical schools and doctrines, special topics, aesthetics, ethics, epistemology, metaphysics, and logic, as well as other areas.

Applied Science

Applied science includes technical branches of knowledge dependent on human practices and conventions as applied social science, accounting, information and computer science, medical science, navigation, engineering, and measurement.

Mathematics

Mathematics can be roughly divided into areas of statistics, geometry, analysis, algebra, arithmetic, and mathematical foundations.

Literature

For the present, literature can be roughly divided into works of literature, literary types, Literary forms, and oral tradition. This classification is subject to change as more works are added.

Graphic Arts

Graphic arts include drawing, painting, printmaking, photography, computer graphics, and other related subjects.

Language

Studies of language include languages of the world, systems of writing, and linguistics, which has to do with the structure of language.


History The historical summary of conceptual culture is at present inadequate: As the site develops and more details of specific areas of culture are filled in, it should become possible to improve this treatment. Very little is available in prehistory, but important developments occurred in antiquity. More is available in classical and medieval history, and a great deal in modern history.
Sociology Peoples of the world, communities, and social structure and change can be applied to the examination of philosophy, applied science, mathematics, literature, graphic arts, and language. Institutions Religion Particular traditions including Asiatic religion and secularism will be useful. Abrahamic religion including Islam can be connected. Christianity including old Christianity, Catholicism, Orthodoxy, Protestantism, and Mormonism can be connected. Judaism can be connected.Pagan religion including Asian pagan, European pagan, African pagan, American Indian pagan, and neopagan religion can be connected. Religious organization may also have a role. Religious practice is connected to conceptual culture. Religious belief is also connected to conceptual culture. Government Particular governments including national government, and local government can be connected. International government including traditional empires, colonial government, and modern compacts can be connected. Government activity including state relations, administration, and succession can be connected. Government structure including forms of government, heads of state, executive systems, legislative systems, judicial systems, and political parties and interest groups can be connected. Law including international law, Western law, Asiatic law, and tribal law can be connected. Economics Economic systems including firms, networks, economic system types, and economic system behavior can be connected. Industries including commercial and financial, communications, transportation, social and medical, building and construction, manufacturing and extraction, and agriculture can be connected. Economic activities including production, distribution and exchange, and consumption are significant. Education Schools including higher education, secondary education, and primary education can be connected. Educational organization including administration, faculty, students, and coursee material can be connected. Cultural institutions including performance venues, libraries, and museums can be connected. Teaching can be connected. Research can be connected. Families Particular families can be connected. Kinship can be connected. Parenting can be connected. Marriage can be connected Other Culture Behavioral culture Cultural events such as miscellaneous events, meetings, holidays, and disasters will also be developed and are important. Recreation and entertainment including music, literature, theater, games, and sports can be considered. Occupations including service occupations, industrial occupations, communications occupations, tranportation occupations, building related occupations, and agricultural occupations are significant. Customs including institutional customs, social interaction customs, dress and adornment customs, living and dwelling customs, and vital customs are important. Material culture Miscellaneous artifacts including sculpture, medicines, musical instruments, and toys can be connected. Communication technology including electronic communication, graphic communication, and written communication is essential. Transportation technology including space transportation, air transportation, water transportation, land transportation, and packaging can also be connected. Clothing including adornment, garments, and textiles can be considered. Foodstuffs including prepared foods, processed and preserved foods, and raw foods can be connected. Building technology including outdoor structures, complete buildings, building parts, furnishings, and materials can be connected. Industrial technology including advanced technology, machinery, weapons, chemical technology, utilities, fuels, and tools can be connected. Anthropology Particular groups Particular groups will be significant. Human geography European geography including Balkan geography, Italian geography, Iberian geography, Eastern European geography, Central European geography, Northwest European geography, Island European geography, and Scandinavian geography can be connected. Asian geography including Southwest Asian geography, South Asian geography, Southeast Asian geography, East Asian geography, Central Asian geography, and North Asian geography will be useful. African geography including North African geography, East African geography, West African geography, North Central African geography, South Central African geography, and Southern African geography can be connected. North American geography including Northern North American geography, Middle North American geography, and Southern North American geography can be connected. South American geography can be connected. Oceanic geography can be connected. Human ecology including the environmental influence and relations with other life will be useful. Human effects on the environment can be connected. Applications of Physical anthropology including human origins, racial variations, and human dispersion do not seem obvious at present but may be useful. Demography including birth, migration, death, population size and structure, and population change can also be used to examine it. Social foundations have a significant effect on conceptual culture. Social presentation, social interaction, social control, group behavior, and types of groups influence it. Personal studies Biographies of authors and originators will also be considered. Some of these include: Jesus Mohammed Newton Buddha Confucius Paul Gutenberg Columbus Einstein Pasteur Galileo Aristotle Euclid Moses Darwin Shih Huang Ti Archimedes Caesar Augustine Aquinas Copernicus Luther Lavoisier Faraday Maxwell Conceptual culture depends heavily on pyschology including behavioral elements, mind, behavior patterns, developmental psychology, mental disorders, personality, and social pychology. The human body and body structure, body functions, disease, life cycle, and form and appearance is significant. Physical and natural science Biology including molecular biology, cell biology, organism biology, systematics, ecology, and biohistory can also be considered. Earth science including geology, hydrospheric science, atmospheric science, physical geography and specifically terrestrial geography, and geohistory can also be considered. Astronomy including cosmology, galactic astronomy, stellar astronomy, and local astronomy will also be useful. Chemistry including substances, changes, and chemical systems may also be useful. Physics has influenced conceptual culture somewhat. Mechanics including particle mechanics, rigid body mechanics, advanced mechanics, and gravitation has been useful. Thermodynamics including statistical mechanics, classical thermodyamics, nonclassical thermodynamics has also been useful because of discussions of heat. Electromagnetism including electrostatics, electric current, magnetism, and optics are useful, especially in modern times, and because they include discussion of light. Relativity is widely misunderstood, but special and general relativity have also been influential. Quantum physics has also been useful. The structure of matter including subatomic physics, atomic physics, molecular physics, bulk matter, and exotic matter has been useful.
