About this book

Elephants, lions, tigers and leopards evoke fascination and awe, fear and excitement.This book analyses trained acts in twentieth-century live circus and cinema, reveals how humans anthropomorphise animals with their emotions, and interrogates the notion that animals embody a phenomenology of emotions and feelings in culture.
