Erica Fudge

    Erica Fudge explore en profondeur les relations historiques complexes entre humains et animaux, avec un accent particulier sur la période moderne ancienne. Elle examine méticuleusement la place et la représentation des animaux dans l'Angleterre des XVIe et XVIIe siècles, explorant les débats philosophiques sur la raison animale et le concept d'intériorité animale. Fudge enquête également sur les implications de l'intégration des animaux dans la recherche historique et les dynamiques complexes des relations humaines avec le bétail. Son travail rapproche ces dimensions multiples des interactions homme-animal d'un public plus large.
