Towards A Boundless Ethic Henry Spira “In their behavior toward creatures, all men were Nazis. The smugness with which man could do with other species as pleased exemplified the most extreme racist theories, the principle that might is right.” -- Isaac Bashevis Singer Today we have particularly good reason to be concerned with the violence humans inflict on humans. But should those of us who care about the violence inflicted on men, women and children care about the violence inflicted on animals? In my own mind, the need for a consistent ethic of nonviolence for both human and non-human animals is obvious•-one is an extension of the other. When thinking of violence to animals many people may just conjure up a gun-toting trophy hunter or a sadistic psychopath torturing a dog. Yet to limit one's vision to these dramatic but occasional acts of violence is to miss the point. The real, massive violence is part of the structure of our culture-animals are considered lab tools and edibles.

  • Liberté, Égalité, Animalité: Human–Animal Comparisons In
    Transnational Environmental Law, Page 1 of 29 © 2016 Cambridge University Press doi:10.1017/S204710251500031X SYMPOSIUM ARTICLE Liberté, Égalité, Animalité: † Human–Animal Comparisons in Law Anne Peters* Abstract This article problematizes the discrepancy between the wealth of international law serving human needs and rights and the international regulatory deficit concerning animal welfare and animal rights. It suggests that, in the face of scientific evidence, the legal human–animal boundary (as manifest notably in the denial of rights to animals) needs to be properly justified. Unmasking the (to some extent) ‘imagined’ nature of the human–animal boundary, and shedding light on the persistence of human–animal comparisons for pernicious and beneficial purposes of the law, can offer inspirations for legal reform in the field of animal welfare and even animal rights. Keywords Animal rights, Human rights, Animal welfare, Speciesism, Discrimination, Cultural imperialism 1. introduction: civilized humans against all others Between 1879 and 1935, the Basel Zoo in Switzerland entertained the public with Völkerschauen,or‘people’s shows’, in which non-European human beings were displayed wearing traditional dress, in front of makeshift huts, performing handcrafts.1 These shows attracted more visitors at the time than the animals in the zoo. The organizers of these Völkerschauen were typically animal dealers and zoo directors, and the humans exhibited were often recruited from Sudan, a region where most of the African zoo and circus animals were also being trapped. The organizers made sure that the individuals on display did not speak any European language, so that verbal communication between them and the zoo visitors was impossible.

  • Recommended Reading About Animal Issues
    Recommended Reading about Animal Issues Empty Cages: Facing the Challenge of Animal Rights by Tom Regan, Professor Emeritus of Philosophy, North Carolina State University in Raleigh Described as the best introduction to animal rights ever written, this book dispels the image of animal rights advocates perpetrated by the media, unmasks the fraudulent rhetoric of humane treatment favored by animal exploiters, and explains why existing laws function to legitimize institutional cruelty. Regan, a leading philosopher in the animal rights movement, intends the book as a popular companion to his scholarly treatments of the subject. Animals as Persons: Essays on the Abolition of Animal Exploitation by Gary L. Francione, Professor of Law. Rutgers University Law School A prominent philosopher of animal rights law and ethical theory, Francione is known for his criticism of animal welfare laws, his abolitionist theory of animal rights, and his promotion of veganism and nonviolence as the baseline principles of the abolitionist movement. In this collection, Francione advances the most radical theory of animal rights to date. Unlike Peter Singer, Francione maintains that we cannot morally justify using animals under any circumstances. Dominion: The Power of Man, the Suffering of Animals, and the Call to Mercy by Matthew Scully One of the best books ever written on the subject of animal welfare. Scully, a journalist and former speechwriter for President George W. Bush. investigated several major animal industries, including hunting, whaling, and factory farming. He asks penetrating questions and shows the logical and political inconsistencies used to defend cruel industries. The Food Revolution: How Your Diet Can Help Save Your Life and Our World by John Robbins, author of Diet for a New America What can we do to help stop global warming, feed the hungry, prevent cruelty to animals, be healthier, and live longer? Eat vegetarian, says Robbins.

  • “Why the Geese Shrieked” Isaac Bashevis Singer's
    “WHY THE GEESE SHRIEKED” ISAAC BASHEVIS SINGER’S WORK BETWEEN MYSTICISM AND SCEPTICISM Khayke Beruriah Wiegand ABSTRACT: In a chapter of his memoirs, the acclaimed Yiddish writer Isaac Bashevis Singer grants his readers some insight into the life of his father’s rabbinic household in Warsaw – a household full of contrasts and tensions between his parents’ conflicting personalities, between Hasidic and Mitnagdic tendencies and between mysticism and scepticism. Both his father’s mysticism and his mother’s scepticism were formative influences on Bashevis, and his writing constantly vacillates between these two world-views. Bashevis is well-known for his short stories about demons, dybbuks and other supernatural phenomena, but it is interesting to note that at times his demons clearly seem to be external manifestations of internal, psychological states of being, whereas at other times no rational explanation for an apparent supernatural phenomenon can be found. Bashevis’s narrators and protagonists constantly question God and express their scepticism about traditional Jewish beliefs, while, on the other hand, they are deeply influenced by Jewish mystical ideas. The conflict between rationalism and mysticism, between modern philosophy and Jewish religious beliefs, especially Kabbalistic ideas, never gets resolved in Bashevis’s works, but this continuous tension is exactly what makes Bashevis such a great writer! In My Father’s Court), entitled) מײַ ן טאַטנס בית-דין שטוב In the second chapter of his memoirs Why the Geese Shrieked”), the acclaimed Yiddish writer Isaac“) ”פאַרװאָס די גענדז האָבן געשריגן“ Bashevis Singer (1904 – 1991) grants his readers some significant insight into the life of his father’s rabbinic household on Krokhmalne-gas (ulica Krochmalna) in Warsaw, a household full of contrasts and tensions between his parents’ conflicting personalities, between Hasidic and Mitnagdic tendencies and between mysticism and scepticism.1 Bashevis’s father, Rabbi Pinkhes-Mendl Zinger, was descended from an illustrious line of rabbis, scholars and Kabbalists.

Acknowledgment I would like to thank Mr. PhDr. Christopher Koy, M.A., Ph.D., the leader of this bachelor thesis, for his valuable advice, extraordinary patience, and friendly attitude. Anotace Cílem této bakalářské práce je analyzovat vybrané povídky ze čtyř sbírek Issaca Bashevise Singera, nositele Nobelovy ceny za literaturu, který popisuje zkušenosti židovského přistěhovalce ve Spojených státech amerických, velmi často mezi lidmi, kteří přežili holokaust a usídlili se v New Yorku a v Miami Beach. Práce ukazuje, jak imigranti prožívají proces přechodu od původní kultury k americké (process of whiteness) a tzv. americký sen jako novodobý mýtus, dále podmínky pro adaptaci a asimilaci židovských hrdinů a hrdinek v jazykové a náboženské oblasti, v manželství, ve zvycích i v jiných projevech starého židoevropského světa ve srovnání s americkou kulturou.
