    Animals were omnipresent in the everyday life and the visual arts of classical Greece. In literature, too, they had significant, functions. This book discusses the role of animals both domestic and wild - and mythological hybrid creatures in ancient Greek literature. Challenging the traditional view of the Greek anthropocentrism, the authors provide a nuanced interpretation of the classical relationship to animals. Through a close textual analysis, they highlight the emergence of the perspective of animals in Greek literature. Central to the book's enquiry is the question of empathy, investigating the ways in which ancient Greek authors invited their readers to empathise with non-human counterparts. The book presents case studies on the animal similes in the Iliad, the addresses to animals and nature in Sophocles' Philoctetcs, the human-bird hybrids in The Birds by Aristophanes and the animal protagonists of Anyte's epigrams. Throughout, the authors develop an innovative methodology that combines philological and historical analysis with a philosophy of embodiment, or phenomenology of the body. Shedding new light, on how animals were regarded in ancient Greek society, the book will be of interest to classicists, historians, philosophers, literary scholars and all those studying empathy and the human animal relationship.

    For poets slightly outside of the literary or social mainstream, humour encourages mutual understanding and empathic insight among artist, audience and subject. As a result, laughter helps poets reframe and reject literary, political and discursive hierarchies - whether to overturn those hierarchies, or to place themselves at the top. 'Humor, Empathy, and Community in Twentieth-Century American Poetry' explores how American poets of the last hundred years have used laughter to create communities of readers and writers.

    An influential body of recent work on moral psychology has stressed the interconnections among ethics, narrative, and empathy. Yet as Patrick Colm Hogan argues, this work is so vague in its use of the term 'narrative' as to be almost substanceless, and this vagueness is in large part due to the neglect of literary study. Extending his previous work on universal story structures, Hogan argues that we can transform ill-defined intuitions about narrative and ethics into explicit and systematic accounts of the deep connections between moral attitudes and narratives. These connections are, in turn, inseparable from empathy, a concept that Hogan proceeds to clarify and defend against a number of widely read critiques. In the course of the book, Hogan develops and illustrates his arguments through analyses of global narratives, constructing illuminating ethical interpretations of literary works ranging from Shakespeare to Chinese drama and the Bhagavad Gita

    Numerous tomes have been written about Jack London's The Call of the Wild. This is the first one to talk about the dog Buck's perspective in the novel. Beierl takes an empathetic approach to discussing the domestication of Buck in the story to use this novel as a platform for building empathetic relationships with animals. Very few scholarly works discuss literature from the perspective of an animal, and this one attempts to bring a fresh perspective at an old novel by theorizing empathetically with the characters, which plays a critical role in narrative-based responses to the novel.

    Empathy is a cognitive and affective structure of feeling, a bridge across interpersonal distance. Coined in 1909 to combine English 'sympathy' and German 'Einfühlung - empathy - is a specifically twentieth-century concept of fellow feeling. Empathy and the Psychology of Literary Modernism looks into the little-known history of empathy, revealing how this multi-faceted concept had a profound effect on literary modernism. Meghan Marie Hammond shows how five exemplary writers (Henry James, Dorothy Richardson, Katherine Mansfield, Ford Madox Ford, and Virginia Woolf) tackle the so-called 'problem of other minds' in ways that reflect and enrich early twentieth-century discourses of fellow feeling. Hammond argues that these authors reconfigure notions of intersubjective experience; their writings mark a key shift away from sympathetic forms of literary representation toward empathic forms that strive to provide an immediate sense of another's thoughts and feelings. But while literary modernism values empathic experience as an ideal, it is also teeming with voices that recognize potential for danger, even violence, in acts of empathy. These voices illuminate our culture's ongoing concern with empathy's limits. Key Features: * Recovers early psychology, a discipline that has often been neglected in favor of psychoanalysis, as a framework for literary modernism *Provides a conceptual history of empathy that expands our understanding of the modernist world *Grants new insight into modernist technique by explaining how it relates to contemporaneous psychological and aesthetic theories on empathy *Prompts a rethinking of empathy, a capacity that is as widely misunderstood as it is celebrated

    Important trends in contemporary intellectual life celebrate difference, divisiveness, and distinction. Speculative writing increasingly highlights ""hermeneutic gaps"" between human beings, their histories, and their hopes. In this book Karl Morrison identifies an alternative to this disruption. He explores for the first time the entire legacy of thought revolving around the challenging claim ""I am you""--Perhaps the most concise possible statement of bonding through empathy. Professor Morrison shows that the hope for thoroughgoing understanding and inclusion in another's world view is ce

    "Traditionally, the American immigrant novel has been characterized by the plot of assimilation and stories about becoming (or failing to become) American. However, the focus on individual stories of transcendence (the migrants that "make it,") often obfuscates larger forces that lead to migration and determine the conditions once migrants arrive. The genre of immigrant literature also depends on a model of reading empathetically that can easily slip into projection and condescension. As Glenda Carpio argues, the semi/autobiographical tales of Americanization tend to reinforce difference and keep non-immigrant readers in the sentimental terrain where feeling badly for sufferers is a privilege, a commodity that gets packaged and sold. In Migrant Aesthetics, Glenda Carpio focuses on how a set of contemporary novelists, including Teju Cole, Dinaw Mengetsu, Aleksandar Hemon, Valeria Luiselli, Julie Otsuka, Junot Díaz, Edwidge Danticat and Karla Cornejo Villavicencio, frame migration crises on a broad, as opposed to a personal, scale and the formal strategies they employ to examine larger forces shaping migration. Through their particular styles, these writers highlight historical resonances across genres, as well as across time and space, to reveal the broad scale of migration and its relationship to the slave trade, colonialism, and neo-colonialism. These writers' works foreclose standard empathetic readings by rejecting autobiography in favor of strategic anonymity, choral or collective narration, unlikable narrators, and shifting vantage points. Ultimately, these writers challenge the view that migration is the problem of the migrant, who must beg admission to sites of power"--

    This study examines the various means of becoming empathetic and using this knowledge to explain the epistemic import of the characters' interaction in the works written by Chaucer, Shakespeare, and their contemporaries. By attuning oneself to another's expressive phenomena, the empathizer acquires an inter- and intrapersonal knowledge that exposes the limitations of hyperbole, custom, or unbridled passion to explain the profundity of their bond. Understanding the substantive meaning of the characters' discourse and narrative context discloses their motivations and how they view themselves. The aim is to explore the place of empathy in select late medieval and early modern portrayals of the body and mind and explicate the role they play in forging an intimate rapport

    An influential body of recent work on moral psychology has stressed the interconnections among ethics, narrative, and empathy. Yet as Patrick Colm Hogan argues, this work is so vague in its use of the term 'narrative' as to be almost substanceless, and this vagueness is in large part due to the neglect of literary study. Extending his previous work on universal story structures, Hogan argues that we can transform ill-defined intuitions about narrative and ethics into explicit and systematic accounts of the deep connections between moral attitudes and narratives. These connections are, in turn, inseparable from empathy, a concept that Hogan proceeds to clarify and defend against a number of widely read critiques. In the course of the book, Hogan develops and illustrates his arguments through analyses of global narratives, constructing illuminating ethical interpretations of literary works ranging from Shakespeare to Chinese drama and the Bhagavad Gita
