This book is the first in its kind to provide a holistic and comprehensive understanding of the representation of nonhuman animals in France from the Enlightenment until the present day. The twenty-two essays investigate the aesthetic matters that have historically resulted from placing nonhuman animals on the stage and bringing them into a performative context, as well as from the human performers that have attempted to enact species otherness.
