“The following three components of culture are essential to any thorough analysis of the subject:
|
1. |
The ideal component of culture is a state or process of human perfection in terms of absolute or universal values. |

2. |
The documentary component of culture is the body of intellectual and imaginative work in which human thought and experience are recorded. |
|
3. |
The social component of culture is a description of a particular way of life that expresses certain meanings and values not only in art and learning, but also in institutions and ordinary behavior. |
In the ideal sense, I analyze popular culture as it relates to the expression of universal human values. I also document and analyze elements of the body of intellectual and imaginative work that popular culture comprises, which reflect prevailing social or cultural trends of their eras. Finally, I examine popular culture as the everyday social experience of individuals, portraying the experience of everyday life.”
