Description
An in-depth look at human-honeybee encounters through multimodal storytelling.
Why have bees and beekeeping gained such popularity over the past two decades? In this ethnographic study, Martin Gruber explores the diverse and intimate entanglements between humans and honeybees across three field sites in Germany, Cameroon, and Japan. Focusing on the sensory, corporeal, and emotional dimensions of the human-honeybee encounter, this innovative, multimodal study integrates film and images with the visual materials accessible directly from within the book. Written in an accessible and engaging style, it brings the human fascination with bees to life for scholars, beekeepers, and general readers alike.
Martin Gruber is an anthropologist and filmmaker whose work focuses on multispecies ethnography, multimodal anthropology and ethnographic film. He has conducted long-term ethnographic research on the relationships between humans and honeybees in Germany, Japan, and Cameroon, culminating in his habilitation at Universität Bremen. He studied Social and Cultural Anthropology at Universität Hamburg and Visual Anthropology at Goldsmiths College, University of London.
