Der Band bestimmt den Begriff der Begegnung als eigene, bedeutungstragende Kategorie und fokussiert zum ersten Mal systematisch und historisch Fragen der Interaktion zwischen Menschen und Tieren in Philosophie, Kunst, Literatur und in sozio-kulturellen Praktiken. Einzelanalysen untersuchen die Formen und Funktionen der Interaktion zwischen unterschiedlichen Spezies sowie deren grundlegende Muster, die einerseits von Empathie, Achtsamkeit oder Agency gekennzeichnet sind, bzw. andererseits von Gewalt, Ausgrenzung, Widerständigkeit oder Konfrontation. Damit ergänzt die Publikation die Erforschung der Tier-Mensch-Beziehung um den zentralen Aspekt von ambivalenten Interspezies-Begegnungen, die zugleich destruktives und transformatives Potential offenbaren.
