The collection, edited by David Herman (Durham University), begins with a meditation on the term “creatural,” which Herman helpfully distinguishes from “creaturely” as a way of understanding creatureliness to include human animals, as well as describing relationships between human and nonhuman beings.	cache/humanimalia-9546.pdf	txt/humanimalia-9546.txt
