Representing animals
2002
Rothfels, Nigel
"Representing Animals explores the complex and often surprising connections between our imagining of animals and our cultural environment. The contributors - historians, literary critics, anthropologists, artists, art historians, and scholars of cultural studies - examine the ways we talk, write, photograph, imagine, and otherwise represent animals. The book includes topics such as pet cloning, fox hunting, animatronic characters, and how we displace our fear of aging onto our dogs.
