Quick! Give me some examples of things that we now consider Culture but were pop culture in their time. I've got Dickens... and am drawing a blank. Ballet? Bonus points for photographers.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Shakespeare.
