Description
This book explores the many ways in which a wild creature has been absorbed, reimagined and represented across the ages in all of the major art forms. It begins with the four sharks at the top of global shark attack file from scientific, economic and environmental perspectives. It engages with cultural representations of sharks in poetry, drama, art, and advertising, in novels, screenplay adaptations and films. It argues that the conscious cultural representation of sharks in negative and positive ways impacts on the decisions made about real sharks in the wild. An increased understanding of sharks should lead to the development of better strategies for shark and human interactions.
