Anthropology notesImpact of cultural origin in relation to values - The impact of cultural origin on values is important because cultures differ - An example would be that in Asian culture, it It is frowned upon to commit inappropriate actions because it shames their family in a culture that values family. - This results in learning that is different from that of other cultures, such as North American culture. - In Asian culture, they would learn all these things with extreme diligence because they value their household's reputation and don't. want to shame him - In North American culture, they would learn all these things because they value esteem, importance, worth, etc. - These cultures more or less dictate a person's values, which leads them to do certain things or not do certain things. or how they would do these things - This applies to my story Hansel and Gretel because the way they learn these things varies due to their culture and it is no different for Hansel and Gretel - For example, the father and Hansel and Gretel's stepmother lived in the forest where there was little to no food and it was difficult to survive - This led their stepmother to have a culture that valued survival, staying alive and cruelty to do so - Their father, however, valued family - This allowed Hansel and Gretel to learn this culture and the values that came with it to survive in the woods - Hansel and Gretel would most likely have acted very differently from someone 'one with different values, leading them to do different things or do different things - When they couldn't return, they came upon a house made of food - This seemed very attractive to Hansel and Gretel because that it's food that is highly valued in their ass...... middle of paper ...... candy making and a witch inside - They also believe that witch is there to collect and eat them, so they lock her in the oven and let her burn alive. This also goes perfectly with paranoid schizophrenia because Gretel had the illusion that a person (the witch) was plotting against the a. a loved one (his brother) - This could pose a serious threat since the witches are not real and the woman they pushed into the oven could just be a woman who just offered them hospitality - This would also confirm the fact that they have difficulty separating fiction from reality and believed that an innocent woman was actually a malicious fictional witch - Schizophrenia is also more common among family members, so it would make sense that Hansel and Gretel have it - Since Hansel and Gretel were both raised the same way, it would also make sense that their schizophrenia is quite similar
