Knowing Animals showcases original explorations of the ?animal turn? by new and eminent scholars in philosophy, literary criticism, art history and cultural studies. The essays collected here describe a lively bestiary of cultural organisms, whose flesh is (at least partly) conceptual and textual: paper tigers, beast fables, anthropomorphs, humanimals, l?animot. In so doing, they investigate the benefits of knowing animals differently: more closely, less definitively, more carefully, less certainly.
