Book excerpt: • This is the first study of the representation of animals and animality in Welsh literature. It introduces the reader to key ideas and concepts from the new and fast-growing field of animal studies, and suggests how Welsh rural and urban history might be redrawn from the perspective of animals and their agenda. • It provides new and exciting insights into a range of Welsh writings about animals, and examines how Welsh literature explores ways of thinking about intelligence, sensibilities and knowledge from an animal perspective. • The book introduces readers to the concept of a relational universe in which all life is bound together through a network of relations and connections and illustrates its importance to animal studies and Welsh writing.
