The Disneyfication of Animals (The Palgrave Macmillan Animal Ethics Series)

Rebecca Rose Stanton

4.9/5 (9283 ratings)

Description:This book critically examines how Walt Disney Animation Studios has depicted – and sometimes failed to depict – different forms of harming and objectifying non-human animals in their films. Each chapter addresses a different form of animal harm and objectification through the theories of speciesism, romanticism, and the ‘collapse of compassion’ effect, from farming, hunting and fishing, to clothing, work, and entertainment. Stanton lucidly presents the dichotomy between depictions of higher order, anthropomorphised and neotonised animal characters and that of lower-order species, showing furthermore how these depictions are closely linked to changing social attitudes about acceptable forms of animal harm.An engaging and novel contribution to the field of Critical Animal Studies, this book explores the use of animals not only in Disney’s best known animated films such as 101 Dalmatians, but also lesser known features including Home on the Range and Fun and Fancy Free. A quantitative appendix supplying data on how often each animal species appears and the amount of times animal harm or objectification is depicted in over fifty films provides an invaluable resource and addition to scholars working in both Disney and animal studies.Contents:1 WDAS’s Problematic Portrayal of Food Farming Part I: The History and Romance of Animal Farming Part II: Data Part III: Animal Farming in WDAS Films Part IV: Animal Farming and Home on the Range Conclusion 2 Hunting and Fishing in WDAS Films Part I: The History of Hunting and Fishing Part II: Data Part III: Hunting and Fishing in WDAS Films Part IV: Hunting, Fishing, and Brother Bear (2003) Conclusion 3 Clothing and Other Objects Made from Animals Part I: When Animals Become Objects Part II: Data Part III: Disney’s Depictions of Clothing and Other Products Made from Animals Part IV: Fur, Leather, and One Hundred and One Dalmatians Conclusion 4 Pets and Working Animals in WDAS Films Part I: The History and Ethics of Pets and Working Animals Part II: Data - Combined Numbers - WDAS’s Pets - Working Animals Part III: WDAS’s Pets and Working Animals - WDAS’s Working Animals Part IV: Pets, Working Animals, and Lady and the Tramp Conclusion 5 Animal “Entertainers” in WDAS Films Part I: Animals in Entertainment Part II: Data Part III: Circuses, Zoos, and Dumbo (1941) Part IV: Animal Actors and Bolt (2008) Conclusion 6 Conclusion - How Are Animal Harm and Objectification Depicted in WDAS Films (1937–2016)? - How Have Different Animal Species Been Depicted in WDAS Films? - Why Have Different Forms of Animal Harm or Objectification Been Depicted with Differing Levels of Sympathy? - Can Depictions of Animals and Animal Harm/Objectification Affect Species in Reality? - What Does WDAS’s Depiction of Harm Towards Animals Reveal About Violence in WDAS Films Generally?We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
