“文化”一词在人类发展过程中被赋予多个定义。从广义上说,人类有意识参与的一切创造活动及其成果(包括物质成果和精神成果)均为文化。文化就是人的非生理部分的总和,即除了人的生理本能之外的所有要素。这种广义的“文化”同“文明”的含义相近。从狭义上说,文化专指文学艺术和科学知识或指人类受教育的程度。 The term “culture” is given multiple definitions in the course of human development. Broadly speaking, all the creative activities that human beings engage in consciously and their achievements (both material and spiritual) are cultures. Culture is the sum of the non-physiological parts of a person, that is, all but the human physical instincts. This broad definition of “culture” is similar to that of “civilization.” In a narrow sense, culture specifically refers to literary, artistic and scientific knowledge or refers to the extent to which human beings are educated.
