Book Description:
|
In art and literature, animals appear not only as an allegoric representation but as a reference which troubles the border between humanity and animality. The aim of the book is to challenge traditional ways of confronting animality with humanity and to consider how the Darwinian turn has modified this relationship in postmodern narratives.
