Carol J. Adams
For 30 years, since the publication of her landmark book The Sexual Politics of Meat, Carol J. Adams and her readers have continued to document and hold to account the degrading interplay of language about women, domesticated animals, and meat in advertising, politics, and media. Serving as sequel and visual companion, The Pornography of Meat charts the continued influence of this language and the fight against it.
This new edition includes more than 300 images, most of them new, and brings the book up to date to include expressions of misogyny in online media and advertising, the #MeToo movement, and the impact of Donald Trump and white supremacy on our political language. Never has this book--or Adams's analysis--been more relevant.©2020 Carol J. Adams (P)2026 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC
Reseñas de la crítica
The connections traced between rampant masculinity, misogyny, carnivorism, and militarism operate as powerfully today as when Carol Adams first diagnosed them twenty years ago. (J. M. Coetzee)
Adams explores the links between the slaughter of animals and violence directed against women, and ties the carnivorous diet to such patriarchal ideas as ‘the end justifies the means.’
Even readers who do not share Adams’s views should find themselves challenged and perhaps even enlightened by this unique work.
highly readable, often eye-opening ... Adams’ central thesis is compelling.
The content is compelling and often funny ... The Pornography of Meat will make you think. (Julian Bynoe)
To say ‘I read’ this book would be an understatement. It’s more like I devoured it faster than my favorite veggie burger ... Adams compellingly illustrates how women and animals are culturally turned into things ... This book would be eye-opening to many, not just feminists and certainly would make readers more savvy of the subtle message behind an advertisement for chicken legs or breasts that is purposefully sexualized. (Beth Fiteni)
Adams shows why our culture views subordinate beings as consumable, complemented by an impressive array of visual images, more connections drawn, more in-depth, yet easy to grasp analysis ... I challenge anyone to try and put the book down after flipping through it — it's impossible.
It is important to recognize that one of the key reasons why Adams is such a key figure in animal studies is due to making debates about interlocking gender and animal oppression intelligible, accessible, and engaging beyond academia: as well as opening up important space within it. It is thus important to recognize the invaluable work that this text, along with Adams’s other work, has accomplished.
Adams addresses a whole series of very important issues in her book, including the objectification of women, misogyny, racism, rape, male dominance and entitlement, domestic violence, pornography, and the cruel treatment of animals .... Readers should obtain a copy of The Pornography of Meat if they wish to view the kinds of visual representations of women and animals in our modern consumer society that reveal the grave dangers that result from perpetuating the myth of male dominance. (Ronald D. Le Blanc)
The Pornography of Meat by Carol Adams, written during the rise of the global Animal Rights movement, is as significant a work as Mary Wollstonecraft’s Vindication of the Rights of Women, written during the French Revolution. Both women are intellectually fearless, revolutionary original thinkers, who have given us the tools and insight, to dismantle the oppression of all beings.
