This course explores the relationships between humans and animals which have long been considered, represented and contested in a range of academic disciplines. Today the unprecedented species extinction, the effects of industrial farming, climate change, the proliferating scientific technologies and a host of other issues are provoking new questions and controversies about the survival and the ontological status of both humans and animals. Through a range of interdisciplinary material, the complex relations between humans and animals across history and cultures are explored with a focus on probing the nature of these relationships in the Anthropocene.
