Abstract "The essays in this volume are organised into four thematic groups. First, we begin with the perspectives of indigenous scholars from Taiwan, who share how their peoples hav...e constructed lifeways through relationships with plants. Second, we explore the wider context of Austronesian worlds in studies of human-bird relations and the widespread use of beads. Third, we examine the role of museums in environmental education. Finally, we look at the study of landscape and technology across Taiwan and neighbouring islands. In other words, how have people from various cultures engaged with other living creatures and non-living objects in their environment? How have these beings influenced human cultural practices and cosmologies in turn? And how can museums apply these worldviews to wider environmental education in different social contexts?"--show more
