Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year is 1806 and Josh is a city boy, just turned eighteen. He had never owned a horse, shot a gun, slept in a tent, built a fire or cooked a meal. And what an adventure awaited him. Wolves and bears, miles of buffalos, herds of deer and elk, the West as it was two hundred years ago. Leaving St. Louis on a warm fall day, riding his newly acquired horse Blaze and leading two heavily laden pack horses, he traveled north for many weeks before turning west following along the Missouri River. Then the weather changed dramatically; rain, thick with snow and a hard cold wind blowing out of the north. Try as he might to keep them moving, their pace slowed and they finally came to a halt. Josh sat for a long time staring west knowing that once stopped it would be months before he could get going again. If he survived the winter that is he reminded himself. Ahead there would be miles of prairies and high mountains. And somewhere far ahead was the Pacific Ocean!

Download or read book Colonizing Animals written by Jonathan Saha and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-11-11 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Animals were vital to the British colonization of Myanmar. In this pathbreaking history of British imperialism in Myanmar from the early nineteenth century to 1942, Jonathan Saha argues that animals were impacted and transformed by colonial subjugation. By examining the writings of Burmese nationalists and the experiences of subaltern groups, he also shows how animals were mobilized by Burmese anticolonial activists in opposition to imperial rule. In demonstrating how animals - such as elephants, crocodiles, and rats - were important actors never fully under the control of humans, Saha uncovers a history of how British colonialism transformed ecologies and fostered new relationships with animals in Myanmar. Colonizing Animals introduces the reader to an innovative historical methodology for exploring interspecies relationships in the imperial past, using innovative concepts for studying interspecies empires that draw on postcolonial theory and critical animal studies.

Download or read book The Beast Between written by Matthew G. Looper and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2019-04-22 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book to focus on the multifaceted images of deer and hunting in ancient Maya art, from the award-winning author of To Be Like Gods: Dance in Ancient Maya Civilization. Winner, CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title, 2019 The white-tailed deer had a prominent status in Maya civilization: it was the most important wild-animal food source at many inland Maya sites and also functioned as a major ceremonial symbol. Offering an in-depth semantic analysis of this imagery, The Beast Between considers iconography, hieroglyphic texts, mythological discourses, and ritual narratives to translate the significance and meaning of the vibrant metaphors expressed in a variety of artifacts depicting deer and hunting. Charting the importance of deer as a key component of the Maya diet, especially for elites, and analyzing the coupling of deer and maize in the Maya worldview, The Beast Between reveals a close and long-term interdependence between the Maya and these animals. Not only are deer depicted naturalistically in hunting and ritual scenes, but also they are assigned human attributes. This rich imagery reflects the many ways in which deer hunting was linked to status, sexuality, and war as part of a deeper process to ensure the regeneration of both agriculture and ancestry. Drawing on methodologies of art history, archaeology, and ethnology, this illuminating work is poised to become a key resource for multiple fields.
