The Meaning of Horses: Biosocial Encounters examines some of the
engagements or entanglements that link the lived experiences of
human and non-human animals. The contributors discuss horse-human
relationships in multiple contexts, times and places, highlighting
variations in the meaning of horses as well as universals of
'horsiness'. They consider how horses are unlike other animals, and
cover topics such as commodification, identity, communication and
performance. This collection emphasises the agency of the horse and
a need to move beyond anthropocentric studies, with a theoretical
approach that features naturecultures, co-being and biosocial
encounters as interactive forms of becoming. Rooted in anthropology
and multispecies ethnography, this book introduces new questions
and areas for consideration in the field of animals and society.
