There is another meaning: culture is what a cultivated man has. I think this meaning is continental, French and German. It is something one person gains with time by broadening his familiarity with the best products of the human mind, like classic books, paintings, etc.

And somehow who doesn't give a shit about Kant isn't educated or refined? > It is something one person gains with time by broadening his familiarity with the best products of the human mind, like classic books, paintings, etc. Expanding your horizons is good. Claiming reading obscure books is the way towards a better world is douchebaggery.
