Title:
Agreements with bears: Evenki reindeer herders and taiga conviviality
Lecturer:
Donatas Brandisauskas, Professor, University of Vilnius (Lithuania) and Visiting Professor of Tohoku University
要旨
In my presentation I will show how nomadic Evenki reindeer herders and hunters create and maintain their mutual interpersonal relations with bears in taiga environments. While, most of the ethnographic literature assert the role and importance of bears in Evenki cosmologies, I aim to elaborate how Evenki interact with bears as diverse individuals that have specific personal characteristics and social abilities. I will show how humans and bears align their lives sharing their living environments and resources based on their experiences of mutual communications, reading intentions, spatial respect and face to face interactions. This taiga conviviality between the social bear and indigenous herders also relies on established relatedness, trust and partnership that is referred as agreement by Evenki or “commonwealth” (see Shirokogoroff 1935). At the same time, such relation shows how ethics of taiga conviviality also preconditions maintenance of certain balance, when less cooperative and dangerous beings are to be eliminated for opening potentialities for other more social relations.
