On the Ethnosphere

After watching the Ted Talks of Wade Davis and Mark Plotkin, answer these three questions and comment on one of the student post:

  • How has your perspective of “mythology” and its value in the lives of human beings changed after watching the videos?
  • How would you define the role of mythology within the culture of the indigenous, native peoples discussed in the videos? Does that tell you anything about the role of mythology in your own culture?
  • Does Humanity have a responsibility to preserve and protect its endangered ethnosphere of cultures, languages, and mythologies just as we do our great works of art or the Earth’s ecological health and diversity? Why or why not?
