Sažetak
The paper focuses on the interactions between bears and humans in near recent East Siberian hunting and gathering communities, and examines affective engagements, narratives and practices related to the life and death of bears that humans have hunted, reared in captivity, ceremonially killed and dismembered. Certain contexts highlight dissimilar embodied experiences and participation in a different set of practices for men and women that might have led to them engaging in distinct affective interactions with the bear. The contribution will consider what emotions might have shaped specific narratives (such as charms) and practices, or might have been expressed in them, together creating powerful affective atmospheres for both species. This is done by consulting Russian language ethnographic and folklore literature, dating from the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century, about the the 20th century, about the communities living in the region of the Amur River in Siberia such as the Nanai, Ulchi, Udege and Nivkhi.
