‘Seascape epistemology’ and native Hawaiian healing
This study analyzes Kimo Armitage’s The Healers to examine how seascape epistemology provides an alternative framework for understanding human-environment relationships. The novel presents Native Hawaiian healing practices that position the ocean as an active, sacred entity central to identity, ancestry, and well-being rather than a passive setting. Armitage’s narrative challenges terrestrial ecological paradigms by emphasizing oceanic relationsh…

Ethnobotany, a multidisciplinary field, explores the connections between humans, culture, plants, and nature as a critique of Anthropocentrism. It highlights enriching relationships between humans and the natural world within diverse cultures and practices, offering solutions to modern environ…
Postcolonial Travel Writing of 1850’s Hawai'i
This article reads O. A. Bushnell’s Ka’a’awa as postcolonial travel writing grounded in the historicity of 1850’s Hawai'i. The novel presents the polyvocal perspective of both Nihoa, an Indigenous Hawaiian, and Bristol, a haole (white) outsider. Through this subjective account, the novel problematizes how travel shapes knowledge and cultural memory. Nihoa’s narrative emphasizes Indigenous traditions and sacred spaces, while Bristol’s journey refl…
A Literary Crossroads
This article examines the concepts of ecological anxiety and imperialism through the prism of colonial literature, with the aim of contextualising them alongside the broader theory of colonial anxiety. The study examines The Tale of Saidjah and Adinda, contained in Max Havelaar, as a case study. The text was investigated in order to identify key signifiers of anxiety, with the buffalo being the strongest signifier identified for discussion. The p…
Charting the Stages of Environmental History
This study analyzes James Michener’s Hawai’i to underline how the environment was changed, altered and transformed over time based on differing paradigms of conceptualizing nature and environment. It primarily focuses on how the Native Hawai’ians, American settlers and Chinese immigrants have contrasting ways of perceiving the more-than-human world. The stages of environmental history, as underlined by Worster and Cronon argue how the differing p…
Spatializing Narrative
This study explores the representation of space in O.A Bushnell’s Ka’awa in which the seemingly contradictory spatial scene of the urban, the rural, the picturesque and the macabre delineates the complexity of postcolonial spaces. Ka’a’awa foregrounds the journey of Hiram Nihoa through his travel all around O’ahu in the 1850’s. Nihoa’s first-person account provides a vivid avenue for the readers through textual cues delineating spaces as they men…
Narrative Perspective and Imagined Space
This paper contextualizes the intricate relationship between language, culture, and place in Milton Murayama’s All I am Asking for is My Body, underlining the dynamic of the Japanese-American diasporic experience in Hawaii. The econarratological analysis delves into the spatial representation and homodiegetic narration employed by Murayama to immerse readers in the plantation labor experience and the linguistic landscapes of Hawaii. The study exa…
Decolonizing Discourses of Tropicality
This paper contextualizes Hawai‘i as a tropical landscape submerged under the discourse of exoticism which conceals the continuing American militarism, nuclearization, and tourist-oriented development in this archipelago. Militourism, as defined by Teresia Teaiwa, argues that the perpetuation of tourism based upon the imagination of tropical paradise conceals the continuation of colonial/neocolonial exploitation of the Hawaiian Islands. Under the…
Deconstructing Paradise
This paper contextualizes how a short story “This is Paradise” by Kristiana Kahakauwila deconstructs the idealized trope of Hawai’i as paradise by presenting a localized narration from the perspective of the indigene working within the tourist industry. The use of first-person plural narration as the focalizer echoes the collective voice of the Hawai’ian indigene in their marginalized status within the tourist industry. An econarratological persp…
An Ecolinguistics Analysis of the Wind Gourd of La’amaomao
This study foregrounds the Native Hawai’ians’ interconnection between culture and nature through ecolinguistic analysis of the Wind Gourd of La’amaomao. The language use in this Hawai’ian folktale emphasizes the reverence Hawai’ian people have toward their environment based on familial kinship. The analysis mainly focuses on two aspects of language use, based on Stibbe’s theory of ecolinguistic, ideology/discourse and evaluation/appraisal. The st…
Positioning the Portrayal of White Protagonists in O.A Bushnell’s the Return of Lono and Ka’a’awa
This paper explores the role of literature in the post-truth age through reading on O.A Bushnell’s the Return of Lono and Ka’a’awa. A Hawai’ian novelist, Bushnell contextualizes the earliest interactions between the native Hawai’ian (Kanaka Maoli) and the white settlers which began with the arrival of Captain Cook’s expedition in 1778. Through his fictions, Bushnell underlines positive portrayal of the white characters to provide a counter-discou…
Reconciling Locality and Globalization through Sense of Planet in Kiana Davenport’s the House of Many Gods
This study positions the House of Many Gods, a novel written by Kiana Davenport as a possible area of intersection between globalization and environmental/eco-criticism. The primacy of locality within American environmental discourse hinders the acceptance of global theory under the assumption that embracing the global will lead into the erasure of the local altogether. In her book, Sense of Place and Sense of Planet (2008) Ursula K Heise asserts…
Beyond the Pastoral
This paper explores the environmental imagination in O.A Bushnells Kaaawa through his representation of pastoralism. A Hawaiian novelist, Bushnell conceptualizes his idea of pastoral based on the Hawaiians traumatic experience with the Western colonial powers. Different with the Anglo-American discourse of pastoralism which emphasizes more on the individual self and the reorientation toward the natural world in rural area, Bushnell foregrounds th…
Aloha Aina
This paper foregrounds the Native Hawai'ians' environmental perspective of Aloha Aina in Oswald Andrew's Ka'a'awa.By asserting that the land and all the entities are part of their family (ohana), this epistemology stresses the equality of human and non-human which run contrary to the Western anthropocentric view.This present study is conducted within indigenous ecocriticism perspective, in which alternative epistemology of human and non-human int…
