The Situationality of Human-Animal Relations - Perspectives from Anthropology and Philosophy, Paperback / softback Book

The Situationality of Human-Animal Relations - Perspectives from Anthropology and Philosophy Paperback / softback

Part of the Human-Animal Studies series

Paperback / softback

Description

Riding, hunting, fishing, bullfighting: Human-animal relations are diverse.

This anthology presents various case studies of situations in which humans and animals come into contact and asks for the anthropological and philosophical implications of such encounters.

The contributions by renowned scholars such as Albert Piette and Kazuyoshi Sugawara present multidisciplinary methodological reflections on concepts such as embodiment, emplacement, or the "conditio animalia" (in addition to the "conditio humana") as well as a consideration of the term "situationality" within the field of anthropology.
