Guided Reading
1) Cluckhohn begins his article with questions for two reasons, one is to
call the reader's attention. Second reason is that he introduces the type
of people he later talks about in the article. He does answer the questions, but
his answer is based on what anthropologists' opinions.
2) Cluckhohn defines culture as a blueprint because he says that culture
is based on a everyday and past event basis.
3) What he means is that he does not have to go through an individual's life history
in order to understand him because by just knowing their culture he is able to
understand the individual's situation.
4) The point he is trying to make with the examples is that sometimes people think
that because it is normal to their eyes to do something it is normal to everyone else.
In other words, people misunderstand others because they do not know the
individual's background or culture.
5) What Cluckhohn means is that culture is something made by the people who
surround us and not something that has been passed on by genetics. The example
provided on paragrah 5. It talks about how a blue eyed boy was thought to be American,
but he was raised in China. People who just saw him thought he was American
but he was more Chinese because he was raised in China and was taught their customs.
