ABSTRACT

This paper explores the realities of voyaging as understood by early Polynesian navigators. The voyaging world of Kaveia, a contemporary navigator from Outlier Polynesia, as recorded by the anthropologist sailor Mimi George, is juxtaposed with those of Tupaia and Puhoro, eighteenth century navigators from the Society Islands, to examine Polynesian understandings of the sea, canoes and islands, and how long-distance voyaging was accomplished in ancestral times. The renaissance in Polynesian voyaging is also examined, in the context of human harm to the oceanic realm, and modernist understandings of relations between people and the sea are interrogated.

星际独木舟,航行世界

摘要

本文探讨了早期波利尼西亚航海家所理解的航海现实。人类学家水手咪咪乔治 (Mimi George) 记录了来自异国波利尼西亚的当代航海家卡维亚 (Kaveia) 的航海世界与来自社会群岛的 18 世纪航海家图帕亚 (Tupaia) 和普霍罗 (Puhoro) 的航海世界并列,以检验波利尼西亚人对海洋、独木舟和岛屿的理解,以及远古航行是如何完成的。在人类对海洋领域造成伤害的背景下,波利尼西亚航海的复兴也受到了审查,并且对人与海洋之间关系的现代主义理解也受到了质疑。
