The ethics and value of speaking for animals. 330 $aFor thousands of years, in the myths and folktales of people around the world, animals have spoken in human tongues. Western and non-Western literary and folkloric traditions are filled with both speaking animals, some of whom even narrate or write their own autobiographies. Animals speak, famously, in children's stories and in cartoons and films, and today, social networking sites and blogs are both sites in which animals, primarily pets, write about their daily lives and interests. Speaking for Animals is a compilation of chapters written from a variety of disciplines that attempts to get a handle on this cross cultural and longstanding tradition of animal speaking and writing. It looks at speaking animals in literature, religious texts, poetry, social networking sites, comic books, and in animal welfare materials and even library catalogs, and addresses not just the "whys" of speaking animals, but the implications, for the animals and for ourselves.--publisher 410 0$aRoutledge advances in sociology ;$v80 606 $aAnimals in literature 606 $aAnimals$xSocial aspects 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAnimals in literature. 615 0$aAnimals$xSocial aspects. 676 $a809/.93362 701 $aDeMello$b Margo$0521387 701 $aHayes$b Jeff$0993989 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462776303321 996 $aSpeaking for animals$92276060 997 $aUNINA
