Anthropology NotesImpact of cultural background on values-The impact of cultural background on values ​​is important since cultures differ-An example would be that in Asian culture it is frowned upon to commit inappropriate actions because it brings one's shame 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 family's reputation and don't want to be ashamed of it - In North American culture they would learn all these things because they value esteem, importance, value etc. -These cultures more or less dictate a person's values ​​which result in them doing certain things or not doing certain things or how they would do those things-This applies to my story Hansel and Gretel because how they learn these things varies because of their culture and this is no different for Hansel and Gretel-For example Hansel and Gretel's father and stepmother lived in the forest where there was little to no food and it was difficult to survive-This made their stepmother have a culture that valued survival, staying alive and being ruthless in doing so - Their father however valued family - This led Hansel and Gretel to learn this culture and the values ​​that came with it in order to survive in the woods - Hansel and Gretel most likely they would behave very differently than someone with different values ​​which led them to do different things or to do different things-When they were unable to return they came upon a house made of food-This seemed very attractive to Hansel and Gretel because this food it is very popular in their cul...... middle of paper ......ade of candy and a witch inside-They also believe that this witch wants to take them and eat them, so they lock her in the oven and leave her burning alive-It also goes perfectly with paranoid schizophrenia because Gretel had the illusion that a person (the witch) was plotting against a loved one (her brother)-This could pose a serious threat since witches are not real and the woman that they put in the oven could just be a woman who just offered them hospitality-This would also support the fact that they have difficulty separating fiction from reality and believed that an innocent woman was actually a malevolent imaginary witch-Schizophrenia is even more common among family members, so it would make sense that both Hansel and Gretel have it-Given that Hansel and Gretel were both raised the same way, they would also perceive that their schizophrenia is quite similar
