You must draw on at least 4 readings covered thus far. These can also include the readings for this coming week. Please use at least 4 quotations and cite accordingly.
In your essay I am not looking for a summary of the texts. I would like you to engage with them analytically. Bring the texts into conversation with each other. You do not have to agree with the texts or the prompt. Think of the prompt as a point of departure for a thought experiment and a journey in which you bring in your own voice.
Prompt
As human-animals we are always in relation with the non-human animal. Intimacy, empathy, identification, substitution, communication—write an essay on some of the different modes through which human-animals and non-human animals live together and share this world.
