The Sensory Modes of Animal Rhetorics: A Hoot in the Light de Alex C. Parrish

The Sensory Modes of Animal Rhetorics: A Hoot in the Light: Palgrave Studies in Animals and Literature

Autor Alex C. Parrish
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 iul 2022
The Sensory Modes of Animal Rhetorics: A Hoot in the Light presents the latest research in animal perception and cognition in the context of rhetorical theory. Alex C. Parrish explores the science of animal signaling that shows human and nonhuman animals share similar rhetorical strategies—such as communicating to manipulate or persuade—which suggests the vast impact sensory modalities have on communication in nature. The book demonstrates new ways of seeing humans and how we have separated ourselves from, and subjectified, the animal rhetor. This type of cross-species study allows us to trace the origins of our own persuasive behaviors, providing a deeper and more inclusive history of rhetoric than ever before.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

“Through this study of how the different (nonhuman) ways other animals perceive the world (electroreception, thermoception, echolocation) and how these in turn shape the forms of their communication and persuasion, Parrish further extends the field of human-animal studies to communication.  As it decenters human exceptionalism, the interface with ‘animal rhetoric’ has important implications for the ethics of our treatment of other animals.” —Kenneth Shapiro, Cofounder and President of the Board of the Animals & Society Institute, USA, and founding editor of Society & Animals: Journal of Human-Animal Studies
“Parrish offers readers (or human animals) novel insights into modes of communication among nonhuman animals through sensory channels far beyond sight and hearing. These unique communicative abilities across the phyla highlight the biological fundamentals under the cultural constructions of communication, the yin and yang of Parrish’s bioculturalapproach. The result...is a new appreciation for the continuities across species in our evolved abilities to persuade.”
—Jeanne Fahnestock, Professor of English at the University of Maryland, USA, and author of Rhetorical Figures in Science (1999)
