Boria Sax

    This author delves into the captivating realm of animals in literature, inspired by early texts and myths. Their work explores the rich history of human-animal relationships through narratives, fables, and mythology. Concerned about the over-academicization of the field, they strive to preserve the sensuous immediacy and poetics that originally accompanied this study. Through the organization Nature in Legend and Story (NILAS), the author bridges storytelling and scholarship, continuing to enrich our understanding of culture and history through the lens of animal characters.
