On découvre sous un jour totalement inattendu la girafe du Jardin des plantes, l’ânesse de Stevenson Modestine, Warrior un cheval engagé dans la Première Guerre mondiale, le taureau Islero qui causa la mort de Manolete, mais aussi Consul et Meshie, deux chimpanzés humanisés, ainsi que les chiens Lazarus et Bummer ou encore Bauschan et Douchka.\u003cbr\u003eCroisant sources écrites, images photographiques et filmées et connaissance de l’éthologie et de l’environnement, l’auteur repousse les frontières de l’écriture de l’histoire pour se placer résolument du côté de l’animal. En accumulant des matériaux sur différents destins inscrits dans leur temps, en les comparant, il propose aussi de penser des époques et des générations animales.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"locale":"ru","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"de","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"es","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"el","short_description":"","description":""}],"actors":[]}
