"Hall, whose Beyond Culture and The Silent Language won a wider readership, has written a ground-breaking investigation of the ways we use and abuse time, rich in insights applicable to our lives. Business readers will enjoy the cross-cultural comparison of American know-how with practices of compartmentalized German, centralized French, and ceremonious Japanese firms." --Publishers Weekly In his pioneering work The Hidden Dimension, Edward T. Hall spoke of different cultures' concepts of space. Now The Dance of Life reveals the ways in which individuals in culture are tied together by invisible threads of rhythm and yet isolated from each other by hidden walls of time. Hall shows how time is an organizer of activities, a synthesizer and integrator, and a special langauge that reveals how we really feel about each other. Time plays a central role in the diversity of cultures such as the American and the Japanese, which Hall shows to be mirror images of each other. He also deals with how time influences relations among Western Europeans, Latin Americans, Anglo-Americans, and Native Americans. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

The fate of this planet rests upon questions which individuals, and cities, have faced before, usually resulting in destruction. With the death or the flowering of our planet at stake, will the history of ego-centered decision making be an indulgence we can afford? [176]
Quote: "American law is particularly blind to the informal foundations of culture." [179] Hall also notes the tension in the difference between "male and female culture".
