Anthropology - the study of human beings and their

ancestors. Seeks knowledge about what makes

people different and what do they have in

common.

An anthropologist is a person who studies the field

of anthropology. They formulate and test

hypotheses concerning humankind so they develop

theories about our species. The roots of

anthropology can be traced to initial accounts of

early traders such as Marco Polo.

Types of

Anthropology

Studies the current, historical and pre-

historical,

bio-cultural aspects of human to understand

human creature.

They focus on humans as biological organisms to

trace their origins, evolutionary development,

Sociolinguistics - study of language in

Sociology (Socius Logos) - study of society.

Pragmatic definition by Becker: Sociology is the

study of people doing things together. Humans are

social beings, not only for survival, but importantly

because our very sense of self derives from our

membership in society.

Auguste Comte (French Philosopher) - Father of

Sociology. A proponent of positivism; believed that

the major goal of sociology was to understand

society as it actually

Culture is a way of life (material, ideas, values and

behavior)

Material culture - physical objects that

people create and use

Non Material culture - abstract human

creations

  1. Culture defines situations
  2. Culture defines attitudes, values, goals
  3. Culture defines myth, legends, and the

supernatural

  1. Culture provides the individual a ready made

view of the universe

  1. Culture provides behavior patterns

Aspect of cultures:

1. Dynamic, Flexible and Adaptive - Culture is

adaptive, all cultures change, or else they would

have problems adjusting and adapting to

environments.

2. Shared and contested - As we

share culture with others, we are able to

act in appropriate ways, as well as predict

how others will act.

3. Learning through socialization-

culture is not biological, we do not inherit

or born out of it, but learned as we

interact in society.

4. Pattern social interactions - it sets

the pattern in terms of what is

appropriate or inappropriate in a given

setting.

5. Integrated and at times unstable - all aspects of a

culture are related to one another and to truly

understand a culture, one must learn about all of

its parts not only a few.

6. Transmitted through socialization -

as we share our culture with outhers, we

were able to pass it on to the new

members of society or the younger

generation in different ways.

7. Requires language and forms - in the process of

learning and transmitting culture, we need

symbols and language to communicate with others

in society.

WEEK#3 CULTURE RELATIVISM II: ETHNO AND

XENOCENTRISM

Culture shock as a disruption to cultural sensitivity

-The feeling of disorientation experienced by

someone who is suddenly subjected to an

unfamiliar cultural way of life, or set of attitudes.

This can result from encountering different ways of

doing things.

Cultural Relativism

-ability to understand a culture on its own terms

and not to make judgements using the standards

of one’s own culture. It promotes the

understanding of cultural practices that are

unfamiliar to other cultures, such as eating

insects, genocides, or genital cutting.

Ruth and Benedict (1887-1948) argued that each

culture has an internally consistent pattern of

thoughts and actions, which alone could be the

basis for judging the merits and morality of the

culture’s practices.

Franz Boa s is well known for his theory of cultural

relativism , which held that all cultures were

essentially equal but simply had to be understood

in in their own terms.

ETHNOCENTRISM (ethnic and center)

  • is the practice where we tend to believe that our

own culture, ethnic group, race, etc. are superior to

others. We make judgments based on our own

culture, we tend to believe that we practice in our

culture is right. (tayo vs.sila)

William Graham Sumner described the term,

involves a belief or attitude that one’s own culture

is superior than all others. A group or society uses

their own value and norms as yardstick in

measuring other folkways and values.

POSITIVE

  • Ethnocentrism contributes to the integrity of

culture because it affirms people’s shared beliefs

and values in the face ot other, often

contradictory, beliefs and values held by people of

other cultural backgrounds.

NEGATIVE

  • Ethnocentrism has led people to commit
  • ethnocide, the destruction of cultures and
  • genocide, the destruction of enire population

XENOCENTRISM (Alien and Center)

  • Preference for other cultural practices of other

cultures and societies, such as how they live and

what they eat, rather than of one’s own social was

of life.

QUOTING

SUMMARIZING PARAPHRASING

when you shortening a process

your paper,

in quotation

marks,

without

changing

them.

our own words.

TECHNIQUES:

WEEK 6: PHILIPPINE ART AS A MIRROR OF FILIPINO

CULTURE

ART - it is an examination of the human condition

or a result of the human experience. Medium for

communication. It represents the artist as well as

the society to which the artist belongs.

CULTURE- THE WORD "CULTURE " COMES FROM

LATIN “ COLERE” WHICH MEANS “TO CULTIVATE”

OR “TO GROW”

CULTURE IS A SOCIETY’S WAY OF LIFE:

  • Language
  • Beliefs and customs
  • Traditions
  • Art and behavior

Philippine Art is a mirror of the Filipino way of life—

our stories, struggles, beliefs, and joys. It helps

define our identity as Filipinos (called pagkafilipino).

Manunggul Jar: A Glimpse into Ancient Filipino

Beliefs- Found in Palawan, this jar was used in

burials. Its boat design shows ancient Filipinos

believed that souls travel by water to the afterlife.

It reflects our maritime culture and belief in the

spirit world, showing respect for nature and

ancestors.

● 3 Faces: Soul of the Beat, Soul of the beat

driver, and the Soul

- Maximalism is an art style filled with patterns,

color, and emotion.

  • Filipinos love to express themselves with

vibrant and detailed designs —seen in festivals,

homes, and crafts.

  • This reflects our emotional warmth and desire to

connect with others.

Felipe M. De Leon - Cultural behavior springs from

an expressive exuberance deeply rooted in

emotional sensitivity and the strong urge to

connect

BAHAY KUBO: SYMBOL OF UNITY AND SIMPLICITY

The Bahay Kubo (nipa hut) is more than a house—

it shows our values: Sociableness – open space for

family and neighbors Bayanihan – helping one

another, especially in times of need

2. PUSO AT DIBDIB - Ang puso ay nagpapakita ng

uri ng pagkatao. Ang dibdib ang pandama ng

damdamin.

3. TIYAN AT BITUKA - Ito’y naglalarawan ng

kalagayan ng pagkatao Malaki ang tiyan. Maliit o

5. KALULUWA AT BUDHI - Ang budhi ay nag-uusig.

Kung ang kaluluwa ay siyang nagpapagalaw ng

buhay, ang budhi naman ay siyang humuhusga sa

buhay na naganap na.
