Cultural Sensibility (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The term cultural sensibility refers to the specific aesthetic ideas that characterize a particular period, country or cultural movement. An author may use the alternative term contemporary sensibility to refer to the current culture of his own society. The cultural movement can be further qualified, like in postmodern sensibility. Sometimes the term sensibility is used as meaning emotional condescension rather than competence, giving to the expression "cultural sensibility" condescending tone towards other cultures.
