Animals, real and fictional, have been a mainstay in the arts and entertainment, figuring prominently in literature, film, television, social media, and live performances. Increasingly, though, people are anthropomorphizing animals, assigning them humanoid roles, tasks and identities. At the same time, humans, such as members of the furry culture or college mascots, find pleasure in adopting animal identities and characteristics. This book is the first of its kind to explore these growing phenomena across media. The contributors to this collection represent various disciplines, to include the arts, humanities, social sciences, and healthcare. Their essays demonstrate the various ways that human and animal lives are intertwined and constantly evolving."-- |cProvided by publisher. 650 0 Human-animal relationships. |=^A271792 650 0 Human-animal relationships in mass media. |=^A1289011 650 0 Animals in mass media. |=^A843845 650 7 Animals in mass media. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00809584 650 7 Human-animal relationships. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00963482 650 7 Human-animal relationships in mass media. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01923062 700 1 Jackson, Kathy Merlock, |d1955- |eeditor. |=^A204363 700 1 Stolley, Kathy Shepherd, |eeditor. |=^A1437621 700 1 Payne, Lisa Lyon, |eeditor. |=^A1437620 949 |i30372017348613 |ojjlm 960 |o1 |s45.00 |tJoyner48 |uJSOC |zUSD 596 1 998 5814563
