Excerpt from Animals' Rights: Considered in Relation to Social Progress
"I saw deep in the eyes of the animals the human soul look out upon me.
"I saw where it was born deep down under feathers and fur, or condemned for awhile to roam four-footed among the brambles. I caught the clinging mute glance of the prisoner, and swore that I would be faithful.
"Thee my brother and sister I see and mistake not. Do not be afraid. Dwelling thus for a while, fulfilling thy appointed time - thou too shalt come to thyself at last.
"Thy half-warm horns and long tongue lapping round my wrist, do not conceal thy humanity any more than the learned talk of the pedant conceals his - for all thou art dumb, we have words and plenty between us.
"Come nigh, little bird, with your half-stretched quivering wings - within you I behold choirs of angels, and the Lord himself in vista."

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the concept of animal rights, arguing that animals, just like humans, possess inherent rights to live their lives with a degree of freedom. The author positions this concept within a broader historical context, tracing the evolution of humanitarian thought from the early days of Buddhism and Pythagoreanism through the Enlightenment period, marking the shift from regarding animals as soulless beings to acknowledging their capacity for suffering and their fundamental right to a dignified existence. The book delves into the profound moral implications of treating animals as mere property, examining a range of issues including the exploitation of domestic animals for labor and food, the cruelties of hunting, and the practice of vivisection. It challenges the common justifications for mistreatment, exposing the hypocrisy behind the notion that humans have the right to exploit animals for their own benefit. The book argues that a truly humane society must recognize animal rights and strive to create a more just relationship between humans and the animal kingdom, ultimately advocating for a future where all beings are treated with compassion and respect. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
