A view to a death in the morning : Hunting and nature through history

by Matt Cartmill

This cultural history explores the origins and enduring appeal of the "Man the Hunter" hypothesis. It traces how hunting has been represented in the Western imagination from antiquity to modern times, analysing changing attitudes towards human dominion over nature.
