Ce livre issu d'un colloque tenu en juillet 2010, au Centre culturel international de Cerisy, a réuni des spécialistes de disciplines très diverses partageant un intérêt pour les animaux. Certains les étudient dans la nature ou dans les laboratoires, là où d'autres enquêtent auprès de chasseurs, d'éleveurs, de soignants, d'activistes ou de protecteurs. De tous ces récits ressort le fait que les animaux importent à chacun de leurs auteurs, qu'ils vivent avec eux, les chassent ou les protègent, ou encore qu'ils en fassent un objet de savoir. Tous s'interrogent sur la façon dont nous faisons aujourd'hui société avec des animaux et sur les formes du « vivre ensemble » que nous devons inventer. Que savons-nous de ces animaux ? Que pouvons-nous imaginer de ce que nous ignorons ? Mais surtout : en quoi ce que nous en savons modifie-t-il notre façon d'être avec eux ?

In this fascinating book, Terry O'Connor explores a distinction that is deeply ingrained in much of the language that we use in zoology, human-animal studies, and archaeology-the difference between wild and domestic. For thousands of years, humans have categorized animals in simple terms, often according to the degree of control that we have over them, and have tended to see the long story of human-animal relations as one of increasing control and management for human benefit. And yet, around the world, species have adapted to our homes, our towns, and our artificial landscapes, fin

This volume deals with the philosophical approach of thirteenth-century masters to concrete, practical manifestations of specifically human life quantum ad naturalia in their commentaries on Aristotle's works on natural philosophy, both the genuine ones and the ones then considered genuine. It inquires into what they deemed worthy of philosophical debate regarding this topic and how they tackled it. This volume completes as Teilband II the researches initiated in a previous volume (Teilband 1) and describes the scholars' discourses on the peculiarity of human body constitution, the specifically human cognitive faculties and operations, human speech and animal vocal communication, human action and animal activity, human emotional behaviour, and human and animal ways of life. This is the first comprehensive source-based study on the subject; it draws heavely on inedited texts.

Interspecies Ethics explores animals' vast capacity for agency, justice, solidarity, humor, and communication across species. The social bonds diverse animals form provide a remarkable model for communitarian justice and cosmopolitan peace, challenging the human exceptionalism that drives modern moral theory. Situating biosocial ethics firmly within coevolutionary processes, this volume has profound implications for work in social and political thought, contemporary pragmatism, Africana thought, and continental philosophy. Interspecies Ethics develops a communitarian model for multispecies ethics, rebalancing the overemphasis on competition in the original Darwinian paradigm by drawing out and stressing the cooperationist aspects of evolutionary theory through mutual aid. The book's ethical vision offers an alternative to utilitarian, deontological, and virtue ethics, building its argument through rich anecdotes and clear explanations of recent scientific discoveries regarding animals and their agency. Geared toward a general as well as a philosophical audience, the text illuminates a variety of theories and contrasting approaches, tracing the contours of a post-moral ethics.
