The Rights Of Man And The Claims Of Brutes - Frances Power Cobbe - Bog

""The Rights of Man and the Claims of Brutes"" is a book written by Frances Power Cobbe, a renowned British social reformer and feminist of the 19th century. The book is a passionate argument for the recognition of animal rights, drawing parallels between the oppression of animals and the oppression of marginalized human groups. Cobbe argues that animals have a moral claim to be treated with respect and compassion, and that their suffering should be taken seriously by society. She also critiques the notion that humans have the right to use animals for their own purposes, whether for food, clothing, or entertainment. The book is a landmark in the early animal rights movement, and its arguments continue to influence contemporary debates about the ethical treatment of animals.THIS 54 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Studies New and Old of Ethical and Social Subjects, by Frances Power Cobbe.
