Kristoffer's Menagerie RSS

This blog is a collection or archive of my thoughts and progress on my PhD. My research looks at animals as objects in eighteenth-century Britain. I hope this blog helps me keep track of my thoughts and records my descent into insanity as I write-up my thesis this year.

I have become interested in animal rights and veganism so my thoughts on these will appear from time to time. Recipes too, well only those that don't contain tofu or seitan.

introduction: animals and me

This is my first blog post. This blog is intended to be a collection of my thoughts on my research, animal rights, veganism, and general stuff. Photographs and recipes will feature often. I’m hoping that recording my ideas on here will serve as a kind of research log and way of developing ideas. Just so I don’t bore people to death I’ll try and make it interesting too!

My research project is called “Nature Collected, Nature Captured: the changing spectacle and meanings of exotic animals in Britain 1675-1815”.
