“…Tita Chico characterises early science as a form of literary knowledge (Chico 2018), and Frederique Ait-Touati describes 'a poetics of the credible in literature and in natural philosophy' (Ait-Touati 2011 p11). Many other examples (Harre 1990) (Clark 1995) (Shuttleworth 1996) (Schleifer 2000) (Jenkins 2007) (Hopwood 2015) (Hyman 2017) (Crossland 2018) (McCutcheon 2018) (Tate 2020).

The conclusion they [animal psychologists] draw from mutilated bodies applies not to animals in the free state but to man as he is today. It shows that because he does injury to animals, he and he alone in all creation voluntarily functions as mechanically, as blindly and automatically as the twitching limbs of the victim which the specialist knows how to turn to account. The professor at the dissecting table defines these spasms scientifically as reflexes, just as the soothsayers at the altar once proclaimed them to be signs vouchsafed by his gods. Reason, mercilessly advancing, belongs to man. The animal, from which he draws his bloody conclusion, knows only irrational terror and the urge to make an escape from which he is cut off.
