The Giant Squid in Transatlantic Culture

The Giant Squid in Transatlantic Culture

The Monsterization of Molluscs

Contenu

Drawing on a range of sources, this book explores the historical relationship between sea animals and humans, demonstrating that far from being an age-old fear with its origins among seafarers, the conception of the giant squid as deep-sea monster evolved as a product of Enlightenment thinking in the work of zoologists and popular writers.
