This edited collection offers a comprehensive overview of the
different aspects of human-animal interactions in Asia throughout
history. With twelve thematically-arranged chapters, this book
examines the diverse roles that beasts, livestock, and fish - real
and metaphorical- have played in Asian history, society, and
culture. Ranging from prehistory to the present day, the authors
address a wealth of topics including the domestication of animals,
dietary practices and sacrifice, hunting, the use of animals in
war, and the representation of animals in literature and art.
Providing a unique perspective on human interaction with the
environment, the volume is cross-disciplinary in its reach,
offering enriching insights to the fields of animal ethics, Asian
studies, world history and more.
