‘Emotions’ is the key concept around which the essays that will be collected in the first volume of Relations revolve. Animals’ emotions, as investigated and described by Marc Bekoff in his The Emotional Lives of Animals (2007), will constitute the starting point for the authors. They will set out to explore a series of aspects related to the relationships between humans and nonhuman animals: the phenomena of companion animals, animal experimentation, animal husbandry, animal advocacy, and so forth, paying attention to their philosophical, anthropological, theological, political, medical, and jurisprudential interpretations. The essays will offer examples of the intersection of scientific attitudes and ethical concerns toward nonhuman animals.
