Scientific Essay from the year 2010 in the subject Cultural Studies - Miscellaneous, , course: Interkulturelles Management, language: English, abstract: The notion of totality can escape the mind, as the mind or rather the way it is used, is itself merely a part of the whole. The description of the whole from the vantage point of its parts involves a pioneering approach aimed at finding out to what extent the human mind and spirit can expand their horizon to approach that which is meant by totality or the whole. Can it rise to a level where it is at least more capable of reflecting totality? It implies an encounter or a rendezvous between the more relative and the more absolute, to put it modestly. Culture has been defined as difference, as patterns of difference, as parts of the whole. The vaster can contain its more modest parts. It is difficult for the part to also cover the whole unless it can stretch to the horizon of the whole. As a part of the whole it partakes in that whole and can realize more or less of the totality of its holistic context.
