Semper's use of various terms describing subdivisions of humanity is most closely aligned with the German word "Volk" in its 19th-century sense. As such, the categories that Semper applies when speaking about different societies are, in today's terms, a mixture of linguistic, ethnic, religious, and cultural terms together with designations that in the 19th century were believed to possess some kind of identifiable reality when describing groups of persons, but which are no longer understood in these terms today. These designations are often pejorative. One example of this is "Wilden" - the "wild people" - a term used to describe groups of persons living in a perceived primitive state. The understanding of "Wilden" as a clearly identifiable and bounded group rested on a set of pejorative assumptions about people whose material culture was interpreted as limited by Europeans, and whose lifestyle was judged by them to be close to nature, i.e. who were seen to be living like animals. At the same time, the tendency to equate linguistic and to some extent religious identities with ethnic ones, characteristic of 19th-century European thought, means that "Cimbrians" appear in Semper's writings as a "Volk", whereas today we would use the term "Cimbrian speakers".
