SAL U Lectures: Thinking Animals - Species, Power, and the Politics of Care in the World
Animals occupy a paradoxical place in the world: they are everywhere, yet hidden. This five-part Seattle Arts & Lectures course, hosted at the Henry, explores the histories, politics, and cultural dynamics of how humans see and do not see animals in the world. Bringing expertise from wildlife sciences, animal welfare, geography, anthropology, literature, and political science, a distinguished set of speakers will explore human/animal connections in a range of global and historical contexts, including Renaissance France, contemporary Peru, and urban and rural spaces in the United States.
February 27:
Louisa Mackenzie, French and Italian Studies, University of Washington, “Thinking with Cats”
