Sins of the Flesh: A History of Ethical Vegetarian Thought
ISBN: 9780774815109 / Angielski / Miękka / 2020 / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Unlike previous books on the history of vegetarianism, Sins of the Flesh examines the history of vegetarianism in its ethical dimensions, from the origins of humanity through to the present. Full ethical consideration for animals resulting in the eschewing of flesh arose after the Aristotelian period in Greece and recurred in ancient Rome, but then mostly disappeared for centuries. Despite the occasional presence of ascetic and cultural vegetarianism, it was not until the turn of the 19th century that vegetarian thought was revived and enjoyed some success. It subsequently...

In this book, Rod Preece takes issue with the popular but simplistic view that the Western cultural tradition has encouraged attitudes of domination and exploitation toward the natural world, particularly animals. he contends that the much-maligned Western tradition has far more to commend it than is customarily recognized, and the much-vaunted ?Oriental? and Aboriginal orientations to animals and nature have habitually been described in a misleadingly rosy hue. According to Preece, the West has often been misread, frequently for ideological reasons. He argues that Western...

ISBN: 9780774811576 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this provocative inquiry into the status of animals in human society from the fifth century BC to the present, Rod Preece provides a wholly new perspective on the human?animal relationship. Brute Souls, Happy Beasts, and Evolution traces the historical status of animals in western civilization, and shows that current scholarship in this area is seriously deficient.

Animal Sensibility and Inclusive Justice in the Age of Bernard Shaw
ISBN: 9780774821100 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In search of insight into late Victorian ideas about animals and the animal rights movement, Rod Preece explores animal sensibility in the work of George Bernard Shaw.
