Abstract

Cultural literacy is defined as the social role of information within, between and across cultures. The term cultural literacy is both oral and chirographic, maintaining cultural identity within a discourse community. A discourse community must have a common vocabulary. One measure of an evolving discourse community is the gradual development of a common vocabulary. Taxonomy, the knowledge organization tool that can be used to demonstrate relationships among terms in a common vocabulary, is an appropriate approach at this time in the discourse community of cultural literacy. Ordering the taxonomy into an ontology can demonstrate another measure of uniformity or order (or lack of it) in the discourse community. The methodology involves discovering key documents that define the discourse community. The research reported in this paper has three objectives: (1) to create a taxonomy using two documents written by noted authors within the field of cultural literacy; (2) to determine whether common vocabulary contains matching words or terms; and if possible, (3) to classify these terms. The importance of this exploratory study is two-fold. First, examination of the taxonomy created by two noted authors in the field might establish a measure of uniformity within the discourse community. Second, the results will determine whether further research is warranted.
