In the company of wolves presents further research from the Open
Graves, Open Minds Project. It connects together innovative
research from a variety of perspectives on the cultural
significance of wolves, wild children and werewolves as portrayed
in different media and genres. We begin with the wolf itself as it
has been interpreted as a cultural symbol and how it figures in
contemporary debates about wilderness and nature. Alongside this,
we consider eighteenth-century debates about wild children - often
thought to have been raised by wolves and other animals - and their
role in key questions about the origins of language and society.
The collection continues with essays on werewolves and other
shapeshifters as depicted in folk tales, literature, film and TV,
concluding with the transition from animal to human in contemporary
art, poetry and fashion. -- .
