Zusammenfassung:Dissertation, University of Cambridge, ca. 1990s
Mobilizing traditions for animals -- Mobilizing the Christian tradition : true patriots and the sacrificial spirit of Christ -- Mobilizing political traditions : we want justice, not charity -- Mobilizing the natural history tradition : the intelligent dog and the affectionate spider -- Mobilizing the evolutionary tradition : a Darwinian revolution in animal ethics? -- Mobilizing literary traditions : "The ultimate word will be spoken . . . by the heart" -- Final reflections
This book explores the British animal defense movement's mobilization of the cultural and intellectual traditions of its time--from Christianity and literature, to natural history, evolutionism and political radicalism--in its struggle for the cause of animals in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries
