Hi Anna,

I would say that Donna Haraway’s The companion species manifesto and When species meet are fundamental for your question. I would also recommend Vinciane Despret’s work, particularly Despret, V (2004). The Body We Care for: Figures of Anthropo-zoo-genesis, Body & Society 10(2-3): 111-134.

Cheers

Asunto: literature search: animals making humans

Dear critters,

I am searching for literature which would help me think through the ways that animals (or other living critters) bring humans into being; or, less cryptically, the ways that interactions with non-humans shape humans' senses of identity and other aspects of personhood. The two key papers for me in thinking about this have been

Holloway, Lewis. "Smallholding, hobby-farming, and commercial farming: ethical identities and the production of farming spaces." Environment and Planning A 34.11 (2002): 2055-2070.

and

Law, John, and Marianne Lien. "Animal architextures." (2012), in Objects and Materials, Harvey et al. (eds)

More suggestions would be very welcome. If you would like me to share the final list with you pls drop me an email.

Thank you all!

Anna
