"Qu’est-ce qui fait d’une femme une colombe? une pieuvre ou une baleine? La cougar existe-t-elle? Fait-il bon vivre avec une chienne? Ce petit livre au ton piquant recense 55 métaphores animalières dont se sont vues affublées les femelles humaines à travers les âges et les continents. Laure Belhassen est allée voir aussi bien du côté de la culture populaire que des sources classiques pour composer le portrait de cette faune aussi bigarrée que fantasmée, qu’elle soit urticante ou soyeuse, portant plumes ou crinière, griffes ou pattes de velours. Assorti d’une iconographie puisant aux origines de l’illustration naturaliste, Femmes animales réactualise des correspondances qui posent une question majeure de la gent masculine : qui sont-elles?"

This is the first book to explore women's leading role in animal protection in 19th-century Britain, drawing on archival sources. Women founded bodies such as the Battersea Dogs' Home, the RSPB and various groups that opposed vivisection. They energetically promoted better treatment of animals, both through practical action and through their writings, such as Anna Sewell's 'Black Beauty'. Yet their efforts were often belittled by opponents, or decried as typifying female 'sentimentality' and hysteria. Only the development of feminism in the later Victorian period enabled women to show that spontaneous fellow-feeling with animals was a civilising force. Women's own experience of oppressive patriarchy bonded them with animals, who equally suffered from the dominance of masculine values in society, and from an assumption that all-powerful humans were entitled to exploit animals at will.
