Description

Explore the complex connections between warfare and the natural world in Bestial Oblivion: War, Humanism, and Ecology in Early Modern England. Published by Routledge, this academic study examines how war functions as a mix of human and nonhuman elements, often creating a false sense of human autonomy. While warfare can unsettle traditional ideas about what it means to be human, it also tends to support and continue anthropocentrism. This book addresses a significant gap in early modern ecocriticism by focusing on the relationship between war and ecology. Through a study of how early modern warfare impacted human-animal and human-technology relationships, the text uses posthumanist theory and animal studies to provide a fresh perspective on history and culture. It is an essential read for those studying the intersection of literature, ecology, and the history of the non-human.
