Preserving Cultural Heritage?

11 November 2017 1 7K Report

Why is preserving Cultural Heritage important?

Is it only to learn form the past to look into the future? or there are other reasons?

Dear Gehan,

As I latch on it, I see tangible culture (architecture, physical objects -- tools, weapons, utensils, etc.), intangible culture (myths, folklore, rituals, language), and natural inheritans (from landscapes to biodiversity). You can appreciate it better than me that each of this is much more than leraning from the past to look into the future. The presence of each has a significance in any given moment as part of a continuum.

Btw, sometime back I happened to read a work by Ann Marie Sullivan on the topic. I have a link, since I have a stock of such things since I write a Sunday column for a newspaper. Here is it:

I wonder why no expert in this field has given you an answer.

All the best.
