For thousands of years, in the myths and folktales of people around
the world, animals have spoken in human tongues. Western and
non-Western literary and folkloric traditions are filled with both
speaking animals, some of whom even narrate or write their own
autobiographies. Animals speak, famously, in children's stories and
in cartoons and films, and today, social networking sites and blogs
are both sites in which animals-primarily pets-write about their
daily lives and interests. Speaking for Animals is a compilation of
chapters written from a variety of disciplines that attempts to get
a handle on this cross cultural and longstanding tradition of
animal speaking and writing. It looks at speaking animals in
literature, religious texts, poetry, social networking sites, comic
books, and in animal welfare materials and even library catalogs,
and addresses not just the "whys" of speaking animals, but the
implications, for the animals and for ourselves.
