Its rationale rests on two main premises: the great topicality of both Italian contemporary philosophy (the so-called "Italian Theory") and of the animal question (the so-called "animal turn" in the humanities and the social sciences) in the contemporary philosophical panorama. The volume not only intersects these two axes, illuminating Italian Theory through the animal question, but also proposes an original thesis: that the animal question is a central and founding issue of contemporary Italian philosophy. It combines historical-descriptive chapters with analyses of the theme in several philosophical branches, such as biopolitics, Posthumanism, Marxism, Feminism, Antispeciesism and Theology, and with original contributions by renowned authors of contemporary Italian (animal) philosophy. The volume is both historical-descriptive and speculative and is intended for a broad academic audience, embracing both Italian studies and Animal studies at all levels. 410 0$aThe Palgrave Macmillan Animal Ethics Series,$x2634-6680 606 $aPhilosophy, Modern 606 $aComparative literature 606 $aPhilosophy of nature 606 $aPhilosophical Traditions 606 $aComparative Literature 606 $aPhilosophy of Nature 615 0$aPhilosophy, Modern. 615 0$aComparative literature. 615 0$aPhilosophy of nature. 615 14$aPhilosophical Traditions. 615 24$aComparative Literature. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Nature. 676 $a179.3 676 $a100 702 $aCimatti$b Felice$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSalzani$b Carlo$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910420924803321 996 $aAnimality in Contemporary Italian Philosophy$92212248 997 $aUNINA
