The 6th meeting of the "Network Cultural History of the Hunt" takes place online: https://stockholmuniversity.zoom.us/j/68487400038

Game, Predator, Friend: Animals and the Hunt

Hunting has shaped the common history of human and non-human animals in manifold ways. We ask scholars of all discipline for contributions in the cultural history of the hunt that addresses the factual, emotional, symbolic, ecological, and other dimensions in which hunting was a practice and a narrative field of inter-species-relationships.
