De la forêt à l’assiette, les connaissances traditionnelles sur les champignons comestibles de la communauté P’urhepecha de Cheran K’eri by Tania González Rivadeneira, Arturo Argueta Villamar

“…The life history of fungi is observed in this article from the different moments in which comuneros and fungi interact, thus stablish relationships to the foods throughout cycles shared of life.Traditional ecological knowledge allows us to describe the "path of mushrooms", since they arise like "Terekua sapichu" (Flower of the earth, small or baby) in the forest, until they are consumed and commercialized by the comuneros, as well as also the practices of collection and transformation of fungi.It is concluded that fungi, as food, are related to the comuneros beyond the mere act of preparation and consumption. …”

Alice’s Non-Anthropocentric Ethics: Lewis Carroll as a Defender of Animal Rights by Anna Kérchy

“…These animals embody a curious otherness radically incompatible with the picara’s human self gradually destabilized by Alice’s numerous shape-shiftings which elicit her misidentification as a flower, a serpent, and a mythical beast. Carroll’s own description of his heroine with positive animal attributes, ‘loving as a dog’ and ‘gentle as a fawn’ (1887) resonates with an ethical agenda outlined in his novels starting out from the multidimensional interspecies relationship that conceives of difference in a non-dualistic, posthumanist deconstructive, Derridean (2008) way. …”
