SUMMARY

The term 'culture', in its anthropological sense, did not enter the American vocabulary until after 1910 - more than a century after Herder used it in Germany. Brad Evans explores this delay in the development of the culture concept and its relation to the description of difference in late 19th-century America.Evans, Brad is the author of 'Before Cultures The Ethnographic Imagination in American Literature, 1865-1920', published 2005 under ISBN 9780226222646 and ISBN 0226222640.
