A golden age is a time in a specific culture when cultural advancements are at their highest point. For example, many refer to the Golden Age of Classical Greece as a time in the 5th century BCE when literature, drama, philosophy, art and politics were most inspired. These ages are often followed by a decline, where new cultural products are derivative and less inspired and where politics begin to veer off from their initial course. If such ages could be graphed, they would be the high point, the top of the bell on a bell curve, or the apex of a society.
Many people all use this term to refer to a time when a specific thing seems to reach a high point. For example, many look at the 1940s as the golden age of American cinema. Recognizing a high point generally means that something is the best it will ever be, however, and many hesitate to use the term.
In a sense, use of the term is often nostalgic and overly romanticized, particularly in history. For example, not all people who lived in ancient Greece benefited. In particular, slaves and women had few personal or political rights. Generally speaking, however, these time periods are simply a sort of cultural explosion occurs where new developments, and new ideas that benefit society as a whole happen with great rapidity.
