The History of Ideas and the Cultural History study History reconstructing the ways of thinking that are expressed in the different cultural objects of each historical period. Literature and Art become the main focus in these subjects. When we research on Cultural History, the Way-of-Looking is something fundamental. It feeds on the conditions of each historical period and goes further the observer’s physical conditions. The Way-of-Looking is educated. We observe starting from the cultural parameters. In this article, the reader will learn a way of answering to the question about the Contemporary Way-of- Looking. If we cover the European ideas alter the French Revolution, we observe that philosophy, art and literature are conditioned by the Way-of-Looking. Photography and cinema influence on this one considerably. That is the way how this article relate Culture and Way-of-Looking.
