Postcolonial Animalities co-edited by Suvadip Sinha and Amit R. Baishya brings together ten essays to consider the interfaces between human and animal and the concrete presence of animals in postcolonial cultural production. This edited collection critiques monohumanist conceptions of the human and considers the co-constitutiveness of imaginaries of the human with grammars of animality. One of the central contributions of this volume is to decolonize existing conceptualizations of the human-animal relationship and to consider the material representation of animals within the realm of colonial and postcolonial cultural production from the perspective of ethical alterity and alternative narratives of anticolonial and postcolonial politics. The volume also explores entanglements of race and species in colonial and neocolonial frameworks without transforming such inquiries into a zero-sum game that privileges one category over another. The essays in the volume focusing on multiple geographical locations ranging from South Asia Southeast Asia post-Ottoman Turkey the Caribbean Australia South Africa and Palestine/Israel historicizes and understands multispecies interspecies and transspecies encounters affiliations and connections in and through their localized dimensions and studies human-animal encounters in their varied and complex affective relationalities. Through such inquiries the volume considers how modes of representing animals including located forms of anthropomorphism and zoomorphism help us think-with and be-with different animals.
