Humans, Among Other Classical Animals

Beschreibung

From the European assimilation and destruction of the New World to our present environmental destruction of our shared world, Humans, among Other Classical Animals demonstrates how the Classics have been implicated in the structures of thought that have ultimately led us to our present historical moment.

Autor

Ashley Clements studied Ancient History and Social Anthropology at University College London and Classics at Cambridge. He is Assistant Professor in Greek Literature and Philosophy at the Classics Department at Trinity College Dublin. His latest research explores how Classical conceptions have always been implicated in European attempts to stake out what is essential to the human and our place in relation to others, and the modern legacy of such receptions. It argues Classics belongs not only to the study of the past but also to vital conversations about humanity of our present; there can be no truly self-reflexive anthropology without it.
