Abstract

La presente reseña realiza un an´alisis del libro "María Flores Rivas, Inmaculada Hernández-Tejero Larrea y Soraya Planchas Gallarte (eds.), Animalia. Estudios sobre animales en la Antigüedad mediterránea, Madrid, Ediciones Antígona, 2022". La particularidad de esta obra radica en que se establece un claro distanciamiento de las investigaciones tradicionales enfocadas en aspectos biológicos o veterinarios, y dirige su atención hacia la filosofía, la literatura y el arte del mundo helénico. Por lo tanto, su objetivo es llevar a cabo un análisis profundo desde diversas perspectivas sobre la importancia de los animales en el pensamiento helénico, hecho poco estudiado en la literatura científica.

Alternate abstract:

The present review provides an analysis of the book "María Flores Rivas, Inmaculada Hernández-Tejero Larrea, y Soraya Planchas Gallarte (eds.), Animalia. Estudios sobre animales en la Antigüedad mediterránea, Madrid, Ediciones Antígona, 2022." The uniqueness of this work lies in its clear departure from traditional research focused on biological or veterinary aspects, instead directing its attention towards the philosophy, literature, and art of the Hellenic world. Therefore, its objective is to conduct an in-depth analysis from various perspectives on the importance of animals in Hellenic thought, a topic that has been little studied in the scientific literature.
