Adams (1990) has exposed how patriarchy casts women and animals in the role of the other, ready for objectification and consumption. However, in the context of recent debates in philosophy and animal studies that challenge anthropocentrism and defend human-animal relatedness, we are witnessing women\u2019s vindication of animality so as to recuperate our repressed animal nature and change oppressive masculinist conventions (Puleo 2011). On the basis of conspicuous and comparable cultural and environmental circumstances in Galicia and Ireland, we intend to identify those figurations on woman-animal relatedness produced since the unprecedented emergence of women writers and artists in both communities in the 1980s. Our hypothesis is that the concurrent circumstances of this incorporation of women alongside the expansion of grassroots activism for animals\u2019rights\u00a0 and of disciplines such as ecofeminism and animal studies are producing new figurations that propose human-nonhuman transversal subjectivities. This transnational, ecoregional, and ecofeminist approach, framed within the field of Environmental Humanities, aims to bridge the gap between artistic creation and political intervention, between environmental theory and social action. As such, this multidisciplinary project seeks to provide the academic, artistic and administrative institutions with a methodologically updated analysis that addresses women\u2019s rights alongside those of animals.<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Research Project: The Animal Trope: An Ecofeminist Analysis of Contemporary Culture in Galicia and Ireland (PGC2018-093545-B- I00\u00a0 MCIU \/\u00a0AEI\u00a0\/ ERDF, UE).
