Van Dyke puts medieval literature in deep conversation with contemporary theoretical perspectives from deconstruction, feminism, science studies, ethics, and ethology. Her topics include anthropomorphism, taxonomy, species interactions and confusions, readers’ responses to written animals, and the literary voicing of nonhuman creatures - SUSAN CRANE
