In a EFL situation, most Korean students and teachers are exclusively dependent on English textbooks to acquire the cultural factors of English. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze cultural elements in the English Textbooks. The results of the study are as follows: First, although all of the textbooks contain the culture part at the end of each lesson, it is insufficient for students to build a cultural schema. Second, in the analysis of cultural types, three types of cultures are presented in a similar percentage. Third, the culture elements were analyzed based on the 7th national curriculum revised in 2011. The most dominant is the culture regarding arts and literature. Forth, in nationality analysis, universal culture takes up the largest portion. Therefore, it is required more efforts to improve students' knowledge of the American and English culture.

Recently, the West's interest on Buddhism has been uprising. If the interest on Buddhism is especially from Western intellectuals, it will surely be the motive to change, the future of Western society. Actually, while the West has been interested in the material civilization on the basis of Christianity, the East has been pursuing after the spiritual culture on the basis of Buddhism. However, what does it mean that many of civilized westerners have come to dislike the manner of scientific pursuit and strict rationality which made them wealthy materially\ulcorner It means that they have felt their ideologies which is based on the Christian culture, has met an end or at least they have started to get interested in the Eastern ideology, 'Buddhism'. Particularly, if we agree that industrial design is a field of basis on the stringent rationality, and is a field of applied science on the basis of technology and production, it surely must have rather been influenced by Christian culture than Buddhism. But regardless of material richness by Christian culture, some Western intellectuals'secession from christianity means that their pursuit of material civilization doesn't help much in chasing after human original happiness. Instead, they are charmed by the fact that their mental illness problem, which is the result of the incessant pursuit of materialism, can be salved more 'scientifically'rather by Buddhism than Christianity. Compared with the westerners'spiritual unhappiness by the strong pursuit of material, Buddhism lowers their passion for material and help to lead their lives happily with least'pursuit of materialism. In this sense, I insist that we need to study'Design'from a viewpoint of Buddhist idea.

20세기 후반 소비문화의 확산과 더불어 자동차 문화가 보편화되면서 전세계적으로 고농도 오존이 문제되고 있다. 1940년대 LA 지역에서 광화학 오염현상이 처음 발견된 이래 1970, 80년대 본격적으로 연구 투자가 이루어지는 동안 LA 지역의 이상적 기후와 오존 농도 변화는 광화학 오염의 전형이었다. 그러나 1990년대 들어, 지역규모의 오염물질 이동에 따른 광역 오염 (미국 동부), 종관풍이 약할 때 오염물질이 정체되며 발생하는 국지 오염 (유럽), 산성비 연구 과정에서 밝혀지기 시작한 강우와 구름의 영향들이 알려지며 오존 오염은 당초에 생각하였던 것보다 훨씬 복합적인 문제임을 인식하게 되었다.(중략)

지금 사회는 물질중심에서 정신(문화)중심의 뉴 패러다임을 맞이하고 있다. 소득수준이 향상되면서 물질뿐만 아니라 국가의 전통문화, 민간 공예, 지방 전통 등 정신적인 측면이 강조되고 있다. 따라서 본 논문은 중국 전지요소를 활용한 포스터 광고 디자인을 통해 전지 요소로서의 활용 가능성을 확대하고, 중국 전통 전지공예의 가치를 재조명하는 동시에 중국 광고 포스터 디자인의 현지화 및 세계화에 대한 가능성을 연구해 보았다.

이 글은 미얀마의 고대 도시에서 축조된 방어장벽의 건축물에 나타나는 신앙문화에 관한 연구이며, 여러 고대 도시, 특히 쀼족(Pyu)의 도시였던 베잇따노(Beikthano), 하링(Halin), 떠예킷떠야(Thayehkittaya, Srikshetra) 등지에서 발굴된 유물, 유적을 분석하였다. 이와 함께, 미얀마의 고대 도시에 형성된 전통적 신앙세계를 해명하는데 중점을 두고자 한다. 미얀마에서는 성문, 성벽, 요새, 또는 파고다를 건축할 때에 신앙적 요소가 반드시 개입되었다. 건축물의 축조 토지의 선택에 있어서나 건축물 용도에 따른 재앙의 예방의 목적을 구현하기 위하여 신앙체계가 적용되었다. 특히, 방어 장벽(예를 들어, 성벽, 성문 등)에서 나타나는 불교경전이나 쇠못이 박힌 철판 및 각종 힌두신과 낫(정령)의 조상(彫像)은 그러한 신앙적 차원에서 도입되었던 것이다. 결론적으로 미얀마의 고대 도시에 있어서 방어 장벽의 구조물에서도 전통신앙과 힌두교 및 불교가 혼합된 신앙체계가 엿보이며, 나아가 쀼 왕국에 형성된 여러 고대 도시에서 서로 유사한 물질문화와 신앙체계가 널리 존재하고 있음이 밝혀졌다.

This article is the critical review of the methods and assumptions with which the Korean archaeologists have tried to approach to the Bronze age society. It was not until the 1980s' that there had been any attempt to define the relevant units for the study of past societies. Before the archaeological records of megalithic builders in the Bronze age began to be analyzed to find out the general traits of chiefdom society, Korean archaeologists had described the variations in the cultural, rather than the social, entities. From the 1990s' , some scholars have attempted to reconstruct the scale and organization of the social groups and explain the growth of polities in evolutionary view, analyzing the hierarchical distributions of settlement data. In the concluding remarks of the review, I would like to indicate the some problems in the conceptualization of the material culture patterning in the regional and/or inter-regional level. First, the conceptual problem which appeared when the Bronze archaeologists define the distribution of artifact assemblages, composed of the specific artifact traits , beyond the instrumental categories that are efficient for the establishments of regional chronologies. It is evidently erroneous conceptualization that we define the artifact assemblages as the socio-cultual entities which came into being in specific time and place, geographically expanded, and finally disappeared based on the view of essentialism. Second, the interpretative problems about wide distributions of certain bronze artifacts must be indicated. I would like to suggest that the wide distributions of the specific bronze dagger or mirror types should be explained not by the cultural area concept related to the ethnicity assumptions, but by the world system or the inter-regional interaction models.

This study explored possibilities and conditions of the SNS dromological paradigm and creative resistance in SNS era. For solve this theoretical questions, I analyzed authority of speed and material conditions. In order to attain this achieve, reviewed Virilio's theories which is criticizing speed, power and sense of artificial. And also studied Kittler's theories about material conditions, 'Information Machine'. Following those theoretical base, this study find social issues and advanced research's propensity for connecting SNS dromological paradigm. Furthermore, I designed depth interview to find SNS users think and experience. This study's significance of result is expanding cultural study filed in SNS approach and provided that exploratory sight.
