  abstract  = {How did humans respond to the eighteenth-century discovery of countless new species of animals? This book explores the gamut of intense human-animal interactions: from love to cultural identifications, moral reflections, philosophical debates, classification systems, mechanical copies, insults and literary creativity. Dogs, cats and horses, of course, play central roles. But this volume also features human reflections upon parrots, songbirds, monkeys, a rhino, an elephant, pigs, and geese - all the way through to the admired silkworms and the not-so-admired bookworms. An exceptionally wide array of source materials are used in this volume's ten separate contributions, plus the editorial introduction, to demonstrate this diversity. As eighteenth-century humans came to realise that they too are animals, they had to recast their relationships with their fellow living-beings on Planet Earth. And these considerations remain very much live ones to this day.},

  abstract  = {In 1735, the Leipzig professor of medicine Samuel Theodor Quellmaltz (1696-1758) designed and built an artificial horse. He presented it in an illustrated construction manual, which included precise information about the materials and dimensions of this wooden horse for therapeutic use. This contribution analyses Quellmaltz's invention of the 'machine horse' as a medical and technological contribution to prevalent theories about the paradigmatic role of the machine in Enlightenment thought.},

  abstract  = {This book is the first collective examination of Late Medieval intimate first-person narratives that blurred the lines between author, narrator, and protagonist and usually feature personification allegory and courtly love tropes, creating an experimental new family of poetry. In this volume, contributors analyze why the allegorical first-person romance embedded itself in the vernacular literature of Western Europe and remained popular for more than two centuries. The editors identify and discuss three predominant forms within this family: debate poetry, dream allegories, and autobiographies. Contributors offer textual analyses of key works from late medieval German, French, Italian, and Iberian literature, with discussion of developments in England, as well. Allegory and the Poetic Self offers a sophisticated, theoretically current discussion of relevant literature. This exploration of medieval "I" narratives offers insights not just into the premodern period but also into Western literature's subsequent traditions of self-analysis and identity crafting through storytelling.},

  abstract  = {The introduction addresses the combination of allegory and the first-person narrative form. This combination, which would prove extremely successful as a template in the following decades, seems to have appeared for the first time shortly after 1200. Not long afterward, the Roman de la Rose was the first text to combine the use of the vernacular, the first person, and allegoricity with courtly tropes. This text stands at the beginning of the impressive history of the "family of texts." The introduction provides an overview of the main characteristics of this family and text types belonging to it: debates, dream allegories, and autobiographical texts, by integrating important results of the case studies presented in the volume.},
