Product details

No other animal is consumed as frequently, and linguistically, the pig, the sow, and the piglet are often and fondly referenced: as expressions of undeserved luck and lack of manners, as insults for contemporaries and the capitalist system. Cultural scientist Thomas Macho traces the career of the bristly creature from its early domestication and later as a livestock animal tended by shepherds to its status as the number one supplier of meat and allegories. It is a plea against fantasies of cleanliness of all kinds and a portrait of old and new breeds, as well as proof that the pig is in no way inferior to humans in complexity and contradiction – unabridged reading by Frank Arnold.
