Medieval Animals on the Move: Between Body and Mind

Editat de László Bartosiewicz, Alice M. Choyke
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 feb 2022
This book investigates relations between humans and animals over several centuries with a focus on the Middle Ages, since important features of our perceptions regarding animals have been rooted in that period. Elucidating various aspects of medieval human-animal relationships requires transdisciplinary discourse, and so this book aims to reconcile the materiality of animals with complex cultural systems illustrating their subtle transitions 'between body and mind'.
