η
eighteenth-century England, the
encounter between humans and other
animals took a singular turn with the
discovery of the great apes and the rise of
bourgeois pet keeping. These historical
changes created a new cultural and
intellectual context for the understanding
and representation of animal-kind, and
the nonhuman animal has thus played a
significant role in imaginative literature
from that period to the present day. In
Homeless Dogs and Melancholy Apes, Laura
Brown shows how the literary works of the
eighteenth century used animal-kind to
bring abstract philosophical, ontological,
and metaphysical questions into the realm
of everyday experience, affording a uniquely
flexible perspectrve on difference, hierarchy,
intimacy, diversity, and transcendence.
Writers of this first age of the rise of the
animal in the modem literary imagination
used their nonhuman characters
—
from
the lapdogs of Alexander Pope and his
contemporaries to the ill-mannered monkey
of Frances Bumey s Evelina or the ape¬
like Yahoos of Jonathan Swift
—
to explore
questions of human identity and self-
definition, human love and the experience
of intimacy, and human diversity and the
boundaries of convention. Later writers
continued to use imaginary animals to
question
human
conventions
of form and
thought. Brown pursues this engagement with
animal-kind into the nineteenth century
—
through works by Mary Shelley, Charles
Dickens, and Elizabeth Barrett Browning
—
and into the twentieth, with a concluding
account of Paul Auster s dog-novel, Timbuktu,
Auster s work suggests that
—
today as in the
eighteenth century
—
imagining other animals
opens up a potential for dissonance that
creates distinctive opportunities for human
creativity.
