Description

Explore the complex relationship between humans and animals during the Victorian era. This scholarly work, published by Routledge, examines how animal characters in literature served as tools for teaching children the proper ways of thinking, speaking, and acting. Whether viewed through a biblical worldview or a secularized morality, the Victorian period maintained a distinct set of mores that shaped how non-human figures were represented in stories. This book addresses the perspectives of postmodern posthumanism by questioning the agency of animal characters in literature. While these characters are creations of the human imagination, the text acknowledges that animals exist in their own right, much like humans. It provides a deep look into how the pervasive sense of decorum in the 19th century influenced the portrayal of the non-human in literary and cultural contexts. This is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in children's literature studies and the history of Victorian culture.
