In Gruesome Playground Injuries; Ani- mals out of Paper; Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo: Three Plays.2010. Berkeley, CA: Soft Skull Press. 362 pp. Michael Morpurgo, War Horse. London: Egmont. 2007/1982. 176 pp. The fall of 2011 was an interesting time in New York for someone like me, someone who specializes in both animal studies and theater. Just about everyone I knew or met asked me whether I’d seen War Horse, and whether I’d loved it as much as they did. In time I learned to couch my answer in terms that would make it less disappointing to my interlocutor by saying that, actually, the animal play that I’d been really impressed by was The Bengal Tiger in the Baghdad Zoo. This 2010 Pulitzer Prize finalist by the young New York–based play- wright Rajiv Joseph reached nowhere near the huge audience numbers that the London- bred War Horse attracted (indeed, Tiger closed in July, after three months of performances; War Horse is still running to sold-out houses) nor did it garner anything like the English play’s accolades (War Horse also won the Tony award for Best New Play), but most people I talked to had at least heard of it, if only because the Broadway production starred Robin Williams in the title role. Sadly, this was one of the things wrong with this production, a casting choice (no doubt partly box-office-driven) that seriously derailed the disturbing logic of the play and under- mined the very thing that made it most interesting from an animal studies point of view: namely, its use of an animal figure to reverse expectations and challenge assumptions. These reversals and revisions came from what I consider to be the play’s genuinely original animal perspective (as written, not as staged in this production): an orientation toward animals, including human animals, that manages to escape the sentimental and anthropocentric traditions that have stunted human-animals relations for so long, and to replace them with a genuine curiosity about how the other animals experience the world that we humans are increasingly shaping and defining for them. As written and imagined, the Tiger in Joseph’s play is a surprising, searching, and healthily skeptical creature, an ideal lens through which to reevaluate the logics that transport individuals (of various species) into alien landscapes and cultures where they are doomed to be misunderstood, to suffer, to destroy, and to be destroyed. As played by Robin Williams, however, with his trademark teddy-bearish lik- ability in full force, the Tiger turned into an avuncular fount of inexplicable insights, instead of—as he is written—a being fully immersed in and expressive of what one might call “species life,” the ecological and biological dimensions of existence. The increased appearance of animals in cultural texts—plays, movies, novels—intended for adults rather than children is one of many promising signs that cultural consciousness © Koninklijke Brill NV, Leiden, 2013 DOI: 10.1163/15685306-12341281 106 Review Essay / Society & Animals 21 (2013) 105-110 about the importance of other species to the future prospects of ours (and about their dire plight) is on the rise. The explosion, in academia, of interest in the history, politics, ethics, and meanings of cultural animal practices (the subject, broadly speaking, of academic ani- mal studies, now enshrined in several journals, book series, and countless conferences worldwide) is matched by an equivalent expansion of the animal presence in art and popu- lar culture, and theater (though slower to take up this theme than other art forms) has joined this trend. Of course in theater, as in the other arts, this “animal uptake” varies widely in terms of its contribution to a genuine reframing of ideas, ideologies, and attitudes toward the human relationship to the other animals. War Horse and Bengal Tiger, for example, occupy virtually opposite poles of a continuum that ranges from old-fashioned sentimentality to postmodern inscrutability. This is certainly true at the level of these plays’ plots: one a classic “boy-meets-horse, loses-horse, finds-horse” tale of interspecies loyalty in the context of vast inequalities and suffering; the other a credulity-straining tale of interspe- cies misunderstanding in the context of geopolitical insanity. Yet the staging of the works— the live events they generate and the experience they offer audiences—produce types of interspecies awareness that show how complex and layered, and therefore how promising, a “theater of species” could be. The Bengal Tiger in the Baghdad Zoo The title of Rajiv Joseph’s play captures a major theme of the contemporary global imagina- tion: namely, displacement—the dislocation of entities from their places of origin and their sources of identity. The tiger’s displacement from Bengal to Baghdad affects his identity— he jokes that he’s now “Tiger of The Tigris”—but it also renders him, like many other characters in the play, radically, permanently, transient: “When you’re this far from home,” he says, “you know you’re never getting back.” Finally, the title conveys the fact that the complex displacements that define today’s globalized world are often played out— celebrated or lamented—through the figure, and the body, of the animal. This was certainly the case with the actual animal on whom Joseph’s tiger is modeled and the true story of his death, with which the play begins: the tiger was shot and killed by American soldiers who were guarding the zoo, when he bit the hand of one of them, who was reportedly teasing him. That actual animal, and the zoo he was in, received enormous media attention in the months following the American invasion of Iraq in 2003. As Kathryn Denning (2008) shows in an article analyzing news coverage of the war, the Baghdad Zoo quickly became a favorite and complex metaphor for journalists and others, used to represent the invaded nation itself and to justify the invasion as a necessary “libera- tion.” The poor conditions at the zoo were frequently treated as metonymic of Iraq’s mar- ginalized place in the international community, as evidence of backwardness and the necessity of external intervention, as well as a locus of liberation and symbol of recovery. For example, an article in The Mirror said of the zoo animals that “unlike the people of Iraq, these prisoners of Saddam’s cruel regime are still awaiting liberation” (quoted by Denning, 2008, p. 64). The fact that the zoo was in such terrible shape largely because it had been bombed by coalition forces during the battle for Baghdad and then pillaged for food by hungry city dwellers was never mentioned, buried under expressions of concern for the animals, reports .

  • The Power of Translation in Rajiv Joseph's Bengal Tiger

Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo (2009) by Rajiv Joseph is one of those plays which depict the plight of an invaded country and its inhabitants. The play revolves around the character of an Iraqi translator, Musa. The role of an interpreter in conflict zones is very significant because linguistic capability bequeaths palpable forms of leverages. Additionally, the very act of translation becomes more considerable and culturally evocative in the backdrop of war. There are many studies conducted on the powerlessness of translators and the exploitation of interpreters at the hands of invaders; however, this paper will conduct a hermeneutic descriptive analysis of the growing empowerment of Musa’s character—both as a translator and as an individual. This study is significant as it initiates the debate into the potential power which the act of translation entails and the need to train interpreters to utilize this power to create a better world for themselves, their country and the world at large.

  • Captain Honored for Baghdad Zoo Rescue
    Captain honored for Baghdad Zoo rescue By CARA SPAZIANI / Journal Staff Writer Capt. William Sumner kneels next to one of Uday Hussein’s cheetahs at the Baghdad Zoo during Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2003. (Submitted photo) MARTINSBURG Sunday, April 22, 2007— Crouching down to the ground, Capt. William Sumner wasn’t petting just any ordinary cheetah. As a captain in the U.S. Army’s 354 Civil Affairs Brigade during Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2003, Sumner, a Martinsburg resident, was responsible for the wartime rescue of the Baghdad Zoo. That rescue, which took place after the fall of Baghdad, included caring for cheetahs once owned by the son of Iraq’s former president, Saddam Hussein. “They were Uday Hussein’s cheetahs,” Sumner said. “He would take them out on the town with him, in the car. They were fairly tame animals, so we played with them on a regular basis.” Sumner was recognized in March for his efforts in helping to rescue the animals of the Baghdad Zoo by being presented with the first recognition award by The Earth Organization, an international conservation group. Sumner’s story was also recounted in “Babylon’s Ark: The Incredible Wartime Rescue of the Baghdad Zoo,” which was written by Lawrence Anthony, the founder of The Earth Organization. CBS’s Sunday Morning show will feature Sumner’s story at 9 a.m. today. Originally deployed to Iraq to be assigned to the Baghdad Museum to investigate the disappearance of the museum’s artifacts, Sumner’s colonel reassigned him to maintain the zoo. “He said, ‘I have a little zoo, can you take that off my hands?,’” Sumner said.

  • Representation of Iraqi War Between Fantasy and Reality in Rajiv Joseph's Bengal Tiger at Baghdad Zoo: a New Historicist Reading
    European Scientific Journal October 2016 edition vol.12, No.29 ISSN: 1857 – 7881 (Print) e - ISSN 1857- 7431 Representation of Iraqi War between Fantasy and Reality in Rajiv Joseph's Bengal Tiger at Baghdad Zoo: A New Historicist Reading Gihan Samy Ibrahim Al Basuony, M.A. Damietta University, Faculty of Arts, Egypt doi: 10.19044/esj.2016.v12n29p323 URL:http://dx.doi.org/10.19044/esj.2016.v12n29p323 Abstract Rajiv Joseph's Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo is among the plays which represent the Iraqi war— a prominent event in postmodern history. The play is based on a real story which happened in the Bagdad Zoo when some American soldiers killed a rare Bengal tiger. It is a documentation of this real story and it includes real names and historical places and characters, which make it qualified as a documentary play. The present paper employs the new historicist method in its attempt to show how much the play is a representation of the culture that motivates the actions, whether it is the culture of the author or that of the characters concerned, Arabs and Americans. Thus, the play could be seen both as a product of the interaction of the American culture and the Arab culture that it came in touch with. The American soldiers first saw this war as a mission of freedom, while the Iraqis saw it as ruin of their culture. However, the dramatic method reflects changes in perspectives as the characters come into contact. In this way, the present reading is a chance to understand cultural and intellectual history through literature and mutual influence of cultures.

  • Pride of Baghdad" Study Questions
    "Pride of Baghdad" Study Questions 1 While four lions actually did escape from the Baghdad Zoo in 2003 after an American bombing, this story has a much deeper meaning as well. How is metaphor and symbolism used throughout the novel? The author tells the story of 4 lions, but in fact, he tells the story of the population of Baghdad. In 2003, Saddam Hussein was in power in Iraq. He ruled over all the people in Iraq. Hussein, and his henchmen are probably the zookeepers. They keep the lions/population caught in their empire. There is also something remarkable about the lions. There are four lions, from different ages. Take Safa for example. She is an older lion, and she has lived in the wild. Zill and Noor live their whole lives in the zoo, but they’re longing to be free. Ali doesn’t understand the situation very good. The population of Baghdad is also divided in different groups; there are people who are so old, that they still know how nice it was before Hussein was in power. Then there are the young adults, who understand the situation, but want it to stop. And there are the children; children don’t understand war, but they have to live with it. This might declare the theme ‘Freedom’, ‘War’ and ‘Violence’ in the book. Another theme might be ‘survival’. When the zoo is bombed, the lions are free. But surviving in the wild isn’t very easy. The lions have lived in the zoo for years, they didn’t had to take care of food, a place to sleep and so on.

    operation zoo rescue TEXT BY ROY WATTS · PHOTOGRAPHS BY GRACIA BENNISH When coalition forces invaded Iraq in 2003, Lawrence Anthony, a conservationist in South Africa, contacted the US consulate to find out whether any provisions had been made for the Baghdad Zoo, the largest in the Middle East.

  • Myth-Ecological Discourse of the Play Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo by Rajiv Joseph
    Author: Liaqat, Qurratulaen Title: War-Afflicted Beings: Myth-Ecological Discourse of the Play Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo by Rajiv Joseph War-Afflicted Beings: Myth-Ecological Discourse of the Play Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo by Rajiv Joseph Qurratulaen Liaqat Forman Christian College, Pakistan [email protected] Abstract Every war has grave repercussions for both the human and non-human elements in the geographical location where it erupts. Dramatic productions like Rajiv Joseph’s Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo (2009) highlight the consequences of war on the ecosystem of the conflict-stricken vicinity of Baghdad city. In the play, the chaotic world portrayed is an ecocentric site where the ghost of a tiger talks and the destruction of the garden, of Baghdad city and of human values are lamented. To illustrate the hazards of human conflict, Joseph incorporates ancient myths with the tragedy of the Iraq war to raise issues related to Eco-theology, Zoo-criticism, Speciesism, Green Criticism, Eco-Feminism and Environmental Racism against the backdrop of the Iraq War. The author integrates Grail legends, Greek mythology and monotheistic religious texts in the play’s structure to draw attention to the impending environmental doom. For example, the garden in the play reminds us of Biblical gardens, the assault of a virgin brings to mind Ovid’s story of Philomela’s rape, and the quest for a golden toilet seat in the desert is a clear indication of the Grail motif in the play’s narrative. All these instances insinuate the embedded mythical patterns and the current era’s indifference to the safety of our fellow species.

Though zoos once only served as entertainment, educational programs are now common at zoos, as are messages about the ways that visitors can and should engage in the conservation of the Earth and its animals.

    Reviews / Society and Animals 15 (2007) 401-408 405 A Graphic Novel Depicting War as an Interspecies Event: Pride of Baghdad. Brian K. Vaughan, Niko Henrichon (Art). Vertigo/DC Comics, 2006. $19.99 Introduction Writer Brian K. Vaughan and artist Niko Henrichon have created a graphic novel that resists camouflaging impulses of willful euphemism when it comes to nonhuman animal victims of war in their hauntingly beautiful Pride of Baghdad. Th is graphic novel, like “Th e Animals’ War” at the Imperial War Museum in London and its catalog, Th e Animals War: Animals in Wartime from the First World War to the Present Day (Gardiner, 2006), recasts war as an interspecies event. Th e text implicitly asks whether the fantasy world of talking animals—indebted to Rud- yard Kipling, George Orwell, and Walt Disney—enhances or distracts from a topic like war. As thousands of human lives are lost in Iraq, should anyone—even animal rights activists—care about the fate of four lions after their accidental “liberation” from Baghdad’s zoo? And if sympathy for suffering animals seems justified alongside mourning of human losses, is the popular anthropomorphizing device of talking animals necessary to generate empathy? We bring two very different perspectives to this review: One of us teaches a course on animals in literature; the other teaches courses in comics as literature. Our subtext is a shared interest in the challenges animals pose in popular representations. In this case, hybrid animals in a hybrid text test readers’ assumptions about whose stories matter, how stories of speechless creatures might be told though words and images, and what perspec- tives we neglect when we assess the impact of politics, violence, and war solely from a human perspective.
