Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Les vingt-et-une contributions réunies dans ce volume sont centrées sur la thématique de l'homme-animal, des auteurs anonymes des premiers hybrides paléolithiques aux artistes les plus contemporains. Un premier chapitre est consacré aux principes de création de ces êtres composites dans plusieurs aires géographiques (monde méditerranéen antique, mondes amérindiens) et aux formes de réception de ces images hybrides aux époques médiévale (Centaures et Sirènes) et moderne (monstres imaginaires et rationalité des sciences naissantes).0Un deuxième chapitre permet de parcourir les enjeux de telles créations en Mésopotamie, en Egypte, en Grèce, en Asie centrale, jusqu'aux "hybrides utopiques" de Grandville. Le chapitre 3 interroge le geste créateur depuis l'homme-lion aurignacien jusqu'aux créations des artistes contemporains (Sphynge en sucre de Kara Walker ; masques d'Ensor ; portrait de Rosa Bonheur) pour arriver au triangle homme-animal-machine.0Un dernier chapitre permet d'approfondir la sémantique des images hybrides dans leur dimension spatiale et symbolique.

Book Description
Dominique Lestel is a French philosopher whose work is significant for the rethinking of animality and human-animal relations. Throughout such important books as L’Animalité (1996), Les Origines animales de la culture (2001) and L’Animal singulier (2004), he offers a fierce critique of reductive, mechanistic models of animal behaviour, as well as a positive contribution to etho-ethnographic and phenomenological methods for understanding animal life. Centred around hybrid human–animal communities of shared interests, affects and meaning, his critical and speculative approach to the animal sciences offers a vision of animals as acting subjects and bearers of culture, who form their own worlds and transform them in concert with human and other partners. In tracing the ways in which we share our lives with animals in the texture of animality, Lestel’s cutting-edge philosophical ethology also contributes to an overarching philosophical anthropology of the human as the most animal of animals. This book was originally published as a special issue of Angelaki: Journal of the Theoretical Humanities.
