Abstract

Van den vos Reynaerde, een middeleeuwse klassieker in de Nederlandse letteren, staat in een lange traditie van dierengedichten, waar ook de Franse Roman de Renart en de Latijnse Ysengrimus, het geniale dierenepos uit de Gentse Sint-Pietersabdij, toe behoren. In deze studie zijn twee minder bekende dierengedichten uit de Latijnse traditie gebundeld, geschreven door en voor monniken uit de benedictijnse kloosterwereld. De Ecbasis cuiusdam captivi per tropologiam - De ontsnapping van een gevangene, in figuurlijke zin -, een ongehoord werk aldus de dichter, vertelt het verhaal van een kalf dat op de vooravond van Pasen uit zijn stal ontsnapt en verdwaalt in het bos. De tekst, die bol staat van zowel serieuze als ironische citaten en allusies, laat zich lezen als het tegelijk allegorische en autobiografische werk van een monnik die, gevangen in luiheid, zijn slechte gewoontes van zich af schrijft in een fictioneel gedicht. Zoals zijn geliefde Horatius het in de veelvuldig geciteerde Ars poetica voorschreef, verenigde hij in zijn dichtwerk voor literaire fijnproevers het nuttige (bezigheidstherapie en een stichtelijk verhaal tegen de achtergrond van Pasen) met het aangename (vermaak voor zijn medebroeders ter gelegenheid van het Paasfeest en het vreugdevolle einde van de vasten) in een unieke mengelmoes van autobiografie, fabel, satire en paasverhaal. Aan het eind van de twaalfde eeuw, in Engeland, schreef Nigel van Canterbury zijn Speculum stultorum (Spiegel voor dwazen), een omvangrijke satire in de vorm van een dierengedicht vol maatschappijkritiek: de paus, koningen, bisschoppen, monniken, nonnen, kooplieden, studenten, boeren – alle standen, van hoog tot laag, krijgen er van langs. De anti-held van dit verhaal is een domme ezel die van het ene ongeluk naar het andere blundert, mislukkingen en gefnuikte ambities aan elkaar rijgt en uiteindelijk dezelfde dwaas is die hij altijd al was, maar deze harde les moet bekopen met het verlies van zijn staart en oren.

Abstract

'Dit ben ik, IA. Hoe je dat zegt? Nou gewoon: Ie-Aa. Ik ga je een verhaal vertellen. Niet zomaar een verhaal, maar een kerstverhaal. Welk geloof je ook hebt, of misschien geloof je helemaal niets, mijn verhaal moet ik kwijt. Je gaat de allermooiste schilderijen en tekeningen uit de hele wereld tegenkomen. Maar nog leuker: het zal je verbazen hoeveel kunstwerken er bestaan waarop ik te zien ben. Honderden, nee duizenden! En dat is omdat ik, IA, een grote rol speel in dit verhaal. Je zult het zien.'Martine Gosselink, directeur van museum het Mauritshuis, vertelt in dit boek het kerstverhaal door de ogen van IA het ezeltje. Veel schilders hebben ezels in hun werk opgenomen, in dit boek een keus daaruit, die samen het kerstverhaal laten zien. Het ezeltje IA blijkt ook veel over de kunstwerken te weten. 'Waarom? Ik was er altijd bij!', aldus IA. https://www.waanders.nl/nl/kerstverhaal-van-ia-het-ezeltje.html

Abstract

Animal Narratology interrogates what it means to narrate, to speak—speak for, on behalf of—and to voice, or represent life beyond the human, which is in itself as different as insects, bears, and dogs are from each other, and yet more, as individual as a single mouse, horse, or puma. The varied contributions to this interdisciplinary Special Issue highlight assumptions about the human perception of, attitude toward, and responsibility for the animals that are read and written about, thus demonstrating that just as “the animal” does not exist, neither does “the human”. In their zoopoetic focus, the analyses are aware that animal narratology ultimately always contains an approximation of an animal perspective in human terms and terminology, yet they make clear that what matters is how the animal is approximated and that there is an effort to approach and encounter the non-human in the first place. Many of the analyses come to the conclusion that literary animals give readers the opportunity to expand their own points of view both on themselves and others by adopting another’s perspective to the degree that such an endeavor is possible. Ultimately, the contributions call for a recognition of the many spaces, moments, and modes in which human lives are entangled with those of animals—one of which is located within the creative bounds of storytelling.
