Eliot's Sweeney to C. S. Lewis's Aslan, modern writing has been filled with strange new hybrid human-animal creatures. Feeding on consumer society, these 'modern primitive' figures often challenge mainstream ideals by discovering wealth in habitats and resources rather than in economic exchange. What compels our post-human identification with these characters? Modern Animalism explores representations of the human-animal 'problem creature' in a broad assortment of literature and comics from the late nineteenth century to the present - including authors such as Woolf, Joyce, Lawrence, Moore, Murakami, Pullman, Coetzee, and Atwood, and comics creators such as McCay, Herriman, Miyazaki, and Morrison. Drawing on a wide range of scholarship, from environmental economics to psychology, Glenn Willmott examines modern and post-modern allegories of the environment, the animal, and economics, highlighting the enduring and seductive appeal of the modern primitive in an age when living with less remains a powerful cultural wish. 606 $aPrimitivism in literature 606 $aEconomics in literature 606 $aEcology in literature 606 $aScarcity 606 $aModernism (Literature) 606 $aPostmodernism (Literature) 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPrimitivism in literature. 615 0$aEconomics in literature. 615 0$aEcology in literature. 615 0$aScarcity. 615 0$aModernism (Literature) 615 0$aPostmodernism (Literature) 676 $a809/.911 700 $aWillmott$b Glenn$f1963-$0919275 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453239003321 996 $aModern animalism$92188651 997 $aUNINA
