Meat Markets articulates the emergent `nonhuman thought developed across literatures of the long nineteenth century and inflecting recent critical theories of abject life and animality.
Examines the strange foundations of nonhuman thought through new readings of nineteenth-century British literatureHow does nineteenth-century literature concerned with creatures, animals, and humans who are not permitted to be properly human also produce such gruesome, strange, abject citizens alongside techno-urban systems like the meat industry, the popular serial press, and even in rights movements? Through formal analysis of subjection, address, and narration in canonical and penny literatures, this book reveals the mutual forces of concern and consumption that afflict objects of a weird cultural history of bloody London across the long nineteenth century.
