Anthropology is a discipline that emphasizes holistic and comparative perspectives. As the name suggests, sensory anthropology studies the relationship between the senses and culture. This book is a selection of conference papers from the "Senses, Memory and Identity" academic seminar held at Minzu University of China on December 1, 2018. From the five perspectives of the senses: smell, hearing, vision, taste, and memory, it discusses the different understandings of these senses by different cultures, that is, the different expressions and presentations of the senses by different nationalities and ethnic groups.
