Human-Animal Studies (HAS) has opened up new lines of scholarly enquiry which is animalising our understanding of social life. This is a significant development because it reminds us of our longstanding co-existence with other species, and it draws attention to the myriad of interspecies contexts, networks and encounters that we continue to be embroiled in today. Although sociology is a relative newcomer to human-animal scholarship, HAS scholars question the largely human-centric focus in many social science disciplines. This paper will initially consider why animals and animal-related issues have increasingly registered on public and academic agendas in recent years. It will also trace the emergence of ‘animal sociology’ and highlight the tarnished status of human-animal scholarship within more anthropocentric wings of the academy.

The aim of the article is to present the human and non-human relations of the city’s inhabitants in the poetry of Ilona Witkowska. The author, using the perspective of interdisciplinary HAS (Human-Animal Studies) research, analyses individual works included in the collections of poems Splendida realta (2012) and Lucifer wins (2017), showing the links between Witkowska’s politically engaged poetry and selected threads of contemporary biopolitical thought. The author tries to show places in Witkowska’s reflection on the relationship of people and animals in urban space which can be connected with the animal turn in the humanities and political philosophy.

Twórczość Sewera Gansowskiego jest znakomitym przykładem współczesnej ekoliteratury. Autor przez wiele lat zajmował się gatunkiem eko-science fiction, który najpełniej ujmuje badanie natury ludzkiej egzystencji oraz interakcje pomiędzy ludźmi i nie-ludzkimi zwierzętami. Wykorzystanie metodologii z obszaru human-animal studies w badaniu gatunku science fiction pozwoliło na przeanalizowanie tekstu pisarza w kontekście najnowszych badań z zakresu ekoliteratury i bioetyki. Przedmiotem analizy jest opowiadanie Małe zwierzę (1969), przedstawiające historię małego chłopca i jego okrutne zachowanie wobec zwierząt. Według autorki artykułu opowiadanie ukazuje kreację człowieka jako przedstawiciela nowej ekokultury oraz kształtowanie się nowego modelu poznawczego świata, w którym zwierzę odgrywa rolę pośrednika między człowiekiem a przyrodą, przekraczającą granice ludzkiego doświadczenia.

The literary works of Sever Gansovsky are an excellent example of modern eco-literature. For many years, the writer worked with the genre of eco-science fiction, which is engaged into the study of the nature of human existence and the interaction of humans with non-human animals. The methods of Human-Animal Studies, applied to science fiction works, allowed us to analyze the writer’s novels in the context of the latest research in eco-literature and bioethics. The object of this study is the novel Little Animal, written in 1969. The novel tells a story of a small boy who is particularly cruel to animals. Little Animal represents the creation of a man as an exponent of a new eco-culture. The novel shows the formation of a new cognitive model of the world, in whichanimals are playing a mediating role between the man and the nature that is beyond the limits of human experience.
