Composing Worlds with Elephants is an interdisciplinary dialogue exploring the
historical, social, and ecological entanglement of humans and elephants, a
thousands of years old interspecies connection that is multi-dimensional,
ambivalent, and always changing. Focusing largely on elephants and peoples
across Asia, the research in this volume addresses key issues in the study of
their relationship including: dimensions of co-existence, cultures of elephant
husbandry, and animal agency. Chapters expand how we conceptualize and study
elephants, offering ideas that might also help us live better with these
endangered animals. Academic texts are supported by visual contributions from
three acclaimed guest artists, original visions that enrich our understanding
of human-elephant worlds. Composing Worlds with Elephants is of value to
researchers of human-animal relations across the humanities, social and
natural sciences, as well as conservationists and an engaged public interested
in exploring new perspectives on humanity’s connection with these charismatic
giants.
