In the beginning of animal rights -- Grounds for argument -- Keeping pets: William Cowper and his hares -- Barbarian pleasures: against hunting -- Savage amusements of the poor: John Clare's badger sonnets -- Work animals, slaves, servants: Coleridge's young ass -- The slaughterhouse and the kitchen: Charles Lamb's 'Dissertation upon Roast Pig' -- Caged birds and wild.
In England in the second half of the eighteenth century an unprecedented amount of writing urged kindness to animals: from sermons and encyclopedias to the work of the great Romantic poets. Romanticism and Animal Rights shows how English Romantic writing took up issues of what we now call animal rights.
