如今,全球氣候變遷正對北極的環境帶來巨大的改變。《北極:文化與氣候》一書帶您探索北極圈裡縱貫古今的文化與歷史,看看生活在北極的人們,如何將他們的文化傳統在社群與環境演變之中繼續繁衍下去。
The Arctic, often imagined as one of the most inhospitable places on earth, has been inhabited for nearly 30,000 years. The various communities that call the region home have found ingenious ways to harness and celebrate their environment, and to co-exist with its wildlife. Today, man-made climate change is transforming the region at an unprecedented rate, bringing with it a new set of challenges. Arctic: culture and climate explores the history of the Circumpolar North and its peoples through the lens of climate change and weather, drawing on a wealth of objects, artworks and voices – from past and present – to show how Arctic Peoples and their cultural traditions have continued to thrive amid both social and environmental change.
