Peeters isn't really sure what he wants to call his cultural reckoning-markers: "rich points" of cultural supersaturatedness, "keywords," "catalysts" for learning (these all the same thing in different guises, of course). He cites Anna Wierzbicka's "new semantic metalanguage" (which makes me suspicious just by its name), George Lakoff's categories, Jerzy Bartmiński's axiology (which seems to me to fall closest to the point here--linguistic categories are always culturally rooted, going back to before we had "language" or "culture" as such, but we still had beliefs and proclivities in some form), and James Underhill's large writing on Humboldt, notably the difference between Weltanschauung, which is active and personal, and Weltansicht, which is prior to there being a person at all--the perspective imposed by a culture and language.
Overall it's a good accounting, though the many pages of accounting of different terms with "ethno-" in front of them (syntax, phraseology, pragmatics, axiology) seems excessive and occasionally tedio-arrogant. But maybe that's just my Weltanschauung.… (altro)
