Abstract
There are various paradigms on the study of water, affecting it from different points of view. Water management is approached from the physical and geological sciences, and relies on technologies such as hydraulic engineering. A socio-historical perspective emphasizes the importance of considering water not as a resource, but as an essential part of a worldview. For example, studies of disasters have emphasized hydroclimatic data, social responses or social vulnerability. Ecocriticism has emphasized the role of the folk tales and fictional characters to convey holistic understandings. Folktales emphasize the importance of these sites of memory and reinforce identities through these ecofictions and rituals. Thus, knowledge of this culture of water not only contributes to basic skills education, and in particular, to literary education and heritage, but also contributes to the governance of water and the sustainable and responsible management of water resources.
