Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Although reasoned discourse on human-animal relations is often considered a late twentieth-century phenomenon, ethical debate over animals and how humans should treat them can be traced back to the philosophers and literati of the classical world.

A commentary precedes each excerpt, transliterations of Greek and Latin technical terms are provided, and each entry includes bibliographic suggestions for further reading. 160 pp. Englisch.…
