Animals on Television Guest lecturer: Brett Mills This seminar examines the representation of non-humans on television, with particular focus on how they are represented across a range of genres. The humanities routinely sees the human as the only worthwhile object of study, but the 'animal turn' in the humanities instead asks; what does it mean to think about animals? Given animals appear so often on television - in wildlife documentaries, in children's television, in cartoons, in adverts - their absence from the usual study of the medium indicates how prevalent anthropocentrism is. In this seminar we will therefore aim to notice animals and to think about how they are represented - and to ask, what might a multispecies Television Studies look like?
