Paperback. Condition: New. Given the ubiquity of environmental rhetoric in the modern world, it's easy to think that the meaning of the terms environment and environmentalism are and always have been self-evident. But in Surroundings, we learn that the environmental past is much more complex than it seems at first glance. In thi…s wide-ranging history of the concept, Etienne S. Benson uncovers the diversity of forms that environmentalism has taken over the last two centuries and opens our eyes to the promising new varieties of environmentalism that are emerging today. Through a series of richly contextualized case studies, Benson shows us how and why particular groups of people-from naturalists in Napoleonic France in the 1790s to global climate change activists today-adopted the concept of environment and adapted it to their specific needs and challenges. Bold and deeply researched, Surroundings challenges much of what we think we know about what an environment is, why we should care about it, and how we can protect it.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Suspicious bats, culled mink, valuable monkeys, and vaccinated tigers: the recent global pandemic has demonstrated the close interconnectedness of animal and human lives in the modern world. The human attribution of epidemic agency to animals has a long historical tradition, as narratives ab…out animal diseases in antiquity already attest. The contributions to this volume focus on animals as victims, hosts, or vectors of dangerous diseases or, since the late eighteenth century, also as producers of vaccines and test bodies for new medicines. They also show how epistemic breaks such as the bacteriological turn around 1900 led to large-scale extermination campaigns against rats and other pests. The changing role of non-human beings in epidemics thus reflects both long continuities and fundamental shifts in relations between humans and other animals.Verdaechtige Fledermaeuse, gekeulte Zuchtnerze, wertvolle Versuchsaffen und geimpfte Tiger im Zoo: Die juengste globale Pandemie hat neben der Vulnerabilitaet von modernen Gesellschaften auch die enge Verflochtenheit von tierlichem und menschlichem Leben eindruecklich vor Augen gefuehrt. Die menschliche Zuschreibung von Akteursrollen von Tieren in Epidemien hat eine lange historische Tradition, wie bereits Erzaehlungen ueber Tierseuchen in der Antike belegen. Die Beitraege des Bandes legen den Fokus auf Tiere als Opfer, Wirte oder UEbertraeger von gefaehrlichen Krankheiten oder seit dem spaeten 18. Jahrhundert auch als Produzenten von Impfungen und Testkoerper fuer Heilstoffe. Sie zeigen zudem auf, wie epistemische Brueche wie die bakteriologische Wende um 1900 zu grossflaechigen Vernichtungsaktionen gegen Ratten und andere Schaedlinge fuehrten. In der sich wandelnden Rolle von Tieren in Epidemien spiegeln sich damit sowohl lange Kontinuitaeten als auch fundamentale Umbrueche in den Beziehungen zwischen Menschen und anderen Tieren.
