And I should post this letter recieved last year...
Got this letter in 2015 from Prof Abhijit Roy, Head of Film Studies at Jadavpur University – very useful for background to our discussions last week:
Hi John,
Your post provoked me (as they always do) to get back once again to the originals, Marx’s ‘Estranged Labor’ and the relevant parts in Capital vol 1 in this case. The following assortment of books/essays/links is just an impromptu selection. I am sure you are aware of most (if not all) of them, but still sharing in a spirit of humanimal labour:
The Human Condition (1958) by Hannah Arendt where Arendt refers to humanity as “animal laborans”
Estrangement: Marx’s conception of human nature and the division of labor(1981) by Isidor Wallimann (There’s a section on ‘Man Versus Animal: The Biological Model’)
Red Kant: Aesthetics, Marxism and the Third Critique by Michael Wayne
What is an Animal? by Tim Ingold
The Rise of Critical Animal Studies: From the Margins to the Centre by Nik Taylor, Richard Twine
Labor and Monopoly Capital: The Degradation of Work in the Twentieth Century by Harry Braverman

If you comment and want to add a link you have to hand code the links using html formatting, which is hard to describe without including active code, but here goes:
the less than sign, letter a, space, the word href, the url in double talking marks, greater than sign, then your link word(s), finished by less than sign, forward slash, letter a, greater than sign.
Its complicated! Sorry. Blogspot should fix it.
