This is a Literary Essay on Dominant Role of Culture in Society.1. Division of Labour based on Culture:Human beings like all primates and mammals are structurally homogeneous. All the women are born with the same anatomical features and so the case with men. Unlike the termites they are not born with different anatomical characteristics suited to their caste functions.

He is an animal of extra-ordinary abilities and capacities. He is the final product of organic evolution and as such has greater capacities to adjust himself to the environment. He not only adjusts himself to the environment, if need arises, he even modifies the environment to suit to his conveniences.Other animals cannot do this; they can only adjust to the existing environment and their failure to do so would ultimately result either in their death, or in their running away from the situation.Man’s life is many-sided. Hence, he claims himself to be a “social animal”, a “political animal”, a “cultural being” and so…

Differences between independent and sovereign States are hound to arise. But they do not go to war always. History is full of examples when disputes between contending States had been settled by the mediation of a third party.During the mediaeval period and early modem times, when the theory of a common superior still persisted, disputes were very often referred to the Pope by the contesting parties for his arbitration.There was no international organisation which could provide machinery for an amicable settlement of international disputes. These conditions continued till the nineteenth century. Image Source: static.cegos.ch ADVERTISEMENTS: By that time warfare had become highly mechanised and a costly venture.

When we are dreaming, we are nearly always convinced that we are awake, and in some cases real experiences have been mistaken for dreams.The latter mistake forms the subject of a celebrated Spanish play called Life a Dream, and of an amusing story in the Arabian Nights, in which a poor man is for a jest treated as a mighty monarch, and it is contrived that he should afterwards think that all the honourable treatment he had actually received was merely a vivid dream. ADVERTISEMENTS: Sometimes even after waking, we may be doubtful whether our dream was a reality or not, especially if we happen to fall asleep in our…

Generally speaking the practice of novel-reading’ is good or bad according to circumstances. There is indeed a class of licen­tious novels, the reading of which can only produce injurious effects.But leaving these out of consideration, we may say that excessive indulgence in the reading of novels is a great waste of time, while a moderate enjoyment of such works may be a good way of pleasantly and profitably whiling away a few of our leisure hours.That excessive indulgence even in good novels may seriously interfere with educational progress will be apparent, if we con­sider for a moment the distinguishing characteristics of novels in general, and of good novels in particular. ADVERTISEMENTS: Novels are fictitious stories intended to give pleasure to the reader by the interesting nature of the events narrated,…
