Poetry and Animals
Author: Onno Oerlemans
Publisher: Columbia University Press
ISBN: 0231547420
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
Why do poets write about animals? What can poetry do for animals and what can animals do for poetry? In some cases, poetry inscribes meaning on animals, turning them into symbols or caricatures and bringing them into the confines of human culture. It also reveals and revels in the complexity of animals. Poetry, through its great variety and its inherently experimental nature, has embraced the multifaceted nature of animals to cross, blur, and reimagine the boundaries between human and animal. In Poetry and Animals, Onno Oerlemans explores a broad range of English-language poetry about animals from the Middle Ages to the contemporary world. He presents a taxonomy of kinds of animal poems, breaking down the categories and binary oppositions at the root of human thinking about animals. The book considers several different types of poetry: allegorical poems, poems about “the animal” broadly conceived, poems about species of animal, poems about individual animals or the animal as individual, and poems about hybrids and hybridity. Through careful readings of dozens of poems that reveal generous and often sympathetic approaches to recognizing and valuing animals’ difference and similarity, Oerlemans demonstrates how the forms and modes of poetry can sensitize us to the moral standing of animals and give us new ways to think through the problems of the human-animal divide.

Around the World on Eighty Legs
Author: Amy S. Gibson
Publisher: Scholastic Inc.
ISBN: 9780439587556
Category : JUVENILE NONFICTION
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Amy Gibson takes readers on a fun-filled, fact-packed, romping, stomping, soaring, twirling, growling, smiling animal adventure around the globe. As readers visit habitats ranging from the Arctic to the savanna, from the Amazon to the outback, they will meet an exciting variety of animals, some familiar (like the cheetah) and some maybe not-so-familiar (like the takin). Charming illustrations by Daniel Salmieri make this a must-have for anyone who loves animals, adventure, and laughing out loud. Crocodile If you slosh through a bog, it may be worth your while - Stop and pause - Are those jaws? (Or a log with a smile?) Note: With only their eyes and nostrils above water, crocodiles lie in wait by the riverbank, still as can be. Any resemblance to floating logs ends, however, once they open their mouths.
