Critical Ethology and Post-Anthropocentric EthicsBeyond the Separation between Humanities and Life Sciences /[electronic resource] :by Roberto Marchesini, Marco Celentano. - 1st ed. 2021. - XIV, 270 p. 2 illus., 1 illus. in color.online resource. - Numanities - Arts and Humanities in Progress,162510-4438 ;. - Numanities - Arts and Humanities in Progress,1.

From the Darwinian to the Ethological Revolutions. An Ongoing Process -- From Evolutionary Epistemology to an Extended Evolutionary Synthesis -- Interspecific Cultural Studies and Numanities. The Comparative Study of Animal Traditions Beyond the Separation Between Humanities and Life Sciences -- Animal Learning: An Epistemological Problem -- The Obscure Object of Animal Subjectivity -- Intus-Legere: Knowledge as an Actualization Process -- Contributions of Ethology to the Birth of a Post-Anthropocentric Ethics -- A Re-Evaluation of Animal Interests Starting from a Critique of Maslow’s Pyramid -- Behavioural and Cultural Epigenetics. The Social Biologisms Refuted by the Developments in Biology.

The primary purpose of this book is to contribute to an overcoming of the traditional separation between humanties and life sciences which, according to the authors, is required today both by the developments of these disciplines and by the social problems they have to face. The volume discusses the theoretical, epistemological and ethical repercussions of the main acquisitions obtained in the last decades from the behavioral sciences. Both the authors are inspired by the concept of a “critical ethology”, oriented to archive the nature/culture and human/animal dichotomies. The book proposes a theoretical and methodological restructuring of the comparative study of the animal behavior, learning, and cultures, focused on the fact that thought, culture and language are not exclusively human prerogatives. The proposed analysis includes a critique of speciesism and determinism in the ethical field, and converge with the Numanities, to which the series is dedicated, on a key point: it is necessary to arrive at an education system able to offer scientific, social and ethical skills that are trasversal and transcendent to the traditional humanities/life sciences bipartition. Skills that are indispensable for facing the complex challenges of the contemporary society and promoting a critical reflection of humanity on itself.
