Screening the Nonhuman

Representations of Animal Others in the Media

238 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This collection draws connections between the ways in which animals represented on screen translate into reality. In doing so, it demonstrates that media consumption is not a neutral act but, rather, a political one. The images humans consume have real-world consequences for how animals are treated as actors, as pets, and in nature.
