When
Captain Samuel Wallis became the first European to land at Tahiti in
June 1767, he left not only a British flag on shore but also three
guinea hens, a pair of turkeys, a pregnant cat, and a garden planted
with peas for the chiefess Purea. Thereafter, a succession of European
captains, missionaries, and others planted seeds and introduced
livestock from around the world. In turn, the islanders traded away
great quantities of important island resources, including valuable and
spiritually significant plants and animals. What did these exchanges
mean? What was their impact? The answers are often unexpected. They also
reveal the ways islanders retained control over their societies and
landscapes in an era of increasing European intervention. ""Trading
Nature"" explores - from both the European and Tahitian perspective -
the effects of 'ecological exchange' on one island from the
mid-eighteenth century to the present day. Through a series of dramatic
episodes, ""Trading Nature"" uncovers the potency of trading in nature.
In the interweavings of chiefly power, ordinary islanders, the ambitions
of outsiders, transplanted species, and existing ecologies, the book
uncovers the cultural and ecological impacts of cross-cultural exchange.
Evidence of these transactions has been found in a rich variety of
voyage journals, missionary diaries, Tahitian accounts, colonial
records, travelers' tales, and a range of visual and material sources.
The story progresses from the first trades on Tahiti's shores for
provisions for British and French ships to the contrasting histories of
cattle in Tahiti and Hawai'i.
