Doelstelling: Deze studie onderzoekt de manier waarop J.M. Coetzee en J.S. Foer het verschijnsel speciesisme blootleggen. Het behandelt de wijze waarop beide auteurs een protest formuleren tegen deze vorm van discriminatie, tegen de normen en gewoonten die speciesisme laten gedijen, en de praktijken die eruit ontstaan. Middelen of methode: Eerst worden gerelateerde thema's uit ondersteunende literatuur bestudeerd (de ethische basis voor dierenrechten, de raakvlakken met andere vormen van discriminatie). Die nieuwe inzichten zullen vervolgens bijdragen tot een analyse van de wijze waarop Coetzee in The Lives of Animals en in Disgrace, en Foer in Eating Animals gedragingen zoals geveinsde onwetendheid blootleggen en bestrijden. Resultaten: n.v.t.

Being Human examines the complex connections among conceptions of human nature, attitudes toward non-human nature, and ethics. Anna Peterson proposes an "ethical anthropology" that examines how ideas of nature and humanity are bound together in ways that shape the very foundations of cultures. Peterson discusses mainstream Western understandings of what it means to be human, as well as alternatives to these perspectives, and suggests that the construction of a compelling, coherent environmental ethics will revise our ideas not only about nature but also about what it means to be human.

La complessità delle connessioni fra umano e non-umano ha trovato nella tradizione poetica statunitense sviluppi estetici originali per ampiezza e profondità. Al contempo, volendo articolare nel testo letterario il silenzio della natura e le sue conseguenze, l’indagine estetica si è sempre più caricata di valenze assiologiche ed epistemologiche, in un crescente intrecciarsi di estetica ed etica. In queste pagine, tre delle maggiori poetesse del Novecento americano aiutano ad illuminare proprio questo spazio di riflessione, ancora ampiamente inesplorato dalla critica. La lettura di Denise Levertov, Mary Oliver e Louise Glück rivela una tensione relazionale il cui fulcro immaginativo ed etico è qui rintracciato nel dialogo muto ma costitutivo fra io lirico e natura. Poesia dopo poesia fiorisce l’impegno poetico a tradurre per il lettore quel tacito conversare che intesse il rapporto fra soggetto umano e mondo naturale e che contiene e mantiene le polarità costitutive di un’interazione in apparenza impossibile, silenziosa eppure sensibile, differita eppure presente, ineffabile eppure reale. Questa lirica esalta e potenzia il carattere relazionale e perfino dialogico dell’esperienza. L’espressione poetica si configura, allora, come un tentativo di con-versare, di costruire insieme all’altro, natura e lettore, la poesia
