The Western philosophical tradition separated animals from men by excluding the former from everything that was considered ?proper to man?: laughing, suffering, mourning, and above all, thinking. The ?animal? has traditionally been considered the absolute Other of humans. This radical otherness has served as the rationale for the domination, exploitation and slaughter of animals. What Derrida called ? la pensée de l?animal ? (which means both thinking concerning the animal and ?animal thinking?) may help us understand differently such apparently human features as language, thought and writing. It may also help us think anew about such highly philosophical concerns as differences, otherness, the end(s) of history and the world at large. Thanks to the ethical and epistemological crisis of Western humanism, ?animality? has become an almost fashionable topic. However, Demenageries is the first collection to take Derrida?s thinking on animal thinking as a starting point, a way of reflecting not only on animals but starting from them, in order to address a variety of issues from a vast range of theoretical perspectives: philosophy, literature, cultural theory, anthropology, ethics, politics, religion, feminism, postcolonialism and, of course, posthumanism. 410 0$aCritical studies (Amsterdam, Netherlands) ;$vv. 35. 606 $aAnimals 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAnimals. 676 $a194 701 $aBerger$b Anne Emmanuelle$0939822 701 $aSegarra$b Marta$0661109 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456744803321 996 $aDemenageries$92118876 997 $aUNINA
