'Fundamental problems such as global warming, the progressive exploitation of resources, and the disrupted ecological balance have inevitably directed attention increasingly to nature and the environment. The prevailing anthropocentric view of the world, in which humans are the measure of all things, has been shaken for a long time. This also affects the sciences, not least the humanities. Therefore, it is appropriate and an expression of our times that the publishing house Routledge has begun a new, promising scholarly series entitled "Perspectives on the Non-Human in Literature and Culture", which is launched by the present volume.' (Introduction)

    'Military conflicts, like the on-going Russo-Ukrainian war, not only affect humans, but also other living beings that surround us. We wrote this short editorial after learning about the bombing of the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Dam in Ukraine on June 6, 2023. Many Ukrainians from that region have been forced to leave their flooded homes, and hundreds of animals, including those at the local zoo, have been killed.' (War and Displacement in Children's Literature : Mateusz Świetlicki  and Chrysogonus Siddha)
