"The Two Cultures" is a term popularized by British scientist and novelist C.P. Snow in his 1959 Rede Lecture, which was later published as a book. In this work, Snow highlights the cultural divide between the sciences and the humanities, arguing that these two fields of knowledge operate in largely separate spheres with little overlap or understanding between them. Snow's central thesis is that this division hinders progress in addressing complex societal problems, as interdisciplinary collaboration is often necessary for solutions.
