Anthropomorphism is very much a Western concept passed on to this part of the world. When I was growing up, the only exposure to anthropomorphic characters was through children's storybooks or through cartoons on the television. Here, in Singapore, where English is the language of instruction, most of our material originates from the West. Even if they were novels written by Asian writers, it was probably most written in English to target a more globally reaching audience or done in a form spanning beyond written language e.

Unfortunately, nobody from Japan answered my query about adult novels with anthropomorphized animals, and I do not know enough Japanese to research this on my own. Also, cute anthropomorphized animals are very popular in Japan as sports mascots and corporate logos. With all these, there are quite likely some in adult literature as well. Since this is a study of adult fiction, the juvenile Russian Oz novels of Aleksandr Volkov and their sequels by Yuri Kuznetsov, Leonid Vladimirski, and others are not included.

In To Become a Dragon , a man wonders where so many flying dragons suddenly came from.

And there are lycanthropes who on one day look like humans and on the other day like beasts. The humans remember nothing about the beast time, nor the beasts of the human. During the red days, a girl with a wolf goes there, while during the blue days it's a man and a big cat.

They will meet a lot of adversity and adventure on this way, a way to the Stone Forest and on the way to themselves. On Earth, where by a strange whim of nature not the primates, but the descendants of cynoids, dogs, became intelligent. The world followed the biological way of development but in the end came to mechanical technologies. The world where people are as diverse as dogs in our world.

And it comes out that in Siberia there are true wolves, predators, for whom killing is as natural as breathing.

Well, it looks like this article is written just in time to get these editions — and by a Furry author and artist, Angel Blackwolf and Siekfried [sic. They say that legends are just that, legends. Not to be ignored, because they are stories that are intended to attract attention. But, what if some are not just stories, and before you know it, you're in the midst of reality?

Many fight against their own personality, against sanity and common sense. Others, on the contrary, give in to force, and enjoy the trip. In your hands is one of those rare cases where fantasy, reality and dreams are intertwined to such an extent that its protagonist must think and decide, so far.

The second volume of the adventures of the young werewolf Angel Blackwolf and his companions. The group formed by Angel and company finally prepares to embark on their trip across the length and breadth of the world. All hope to find the necessary answers to all their questions and concerns, although none of them, as you can imagine, realize the magnitude of what they will encounter. The last of their number will return to its rightful place. It is without text and with a title in English, but the Lulu.

Illustrated by Siekfried Schneider. Bubok, May , pages. When the unsuccessful academic Sefrem Ibrahim is offered a job as organic overseer on a world named Batak, the wait to get there is not hard. His thoughts are entirely of the myth of idyllism on a virgin world. He does not even listen to the cautionary words of Vitriolic, the large sexy she-cat of the Catworld. Sefrem tries to stop the environmental destruction without realizing the forces that he is up against; influential people who are prepared to continue exploitation until there is nothing left on the planet.

The Golden Leap , published ten years later, is actually a prequel telling of the first human settlement of Batak. Mikael and Jennifer are on their way to planet ZQ for their new life. They are part of a large group of emigrants who are leaving the tired Earth to seek paradise. And ZQ seems to be precisely this paradise. A planet filled with endless forests, far savannas, and above all no people.

But ZQ differs from all other planets colonized by man. There is in fact intelligent life, perhaps even more intelligent than human beings. A kind of gigantic cats had lived for thousands of years in total balance with their environment. Their lives concentrated around the hunting requirements of cooperation, and around humility before mathematics or magic. This life is, however, in direct conflict with human selfishness and greed. So how can people and cats ever be able to cooperate on ZQ? This is an exciting and readable story of the human first meeting with an extraterrestrial intelligence.

It could be said that cats are all that man should be; humble, cooperative, considerate and intelligent. This tale makes transparent how humankind really is a mixture of both good and bad faith. Illustrated by Hans Arnold. Nyblom, , pages. It is convenient that almost all of these can be ordered from international online booksellers or publishers today, many in e.

There must be more foreign Furry novels than these that have no English-language editions yet. Does anyone know of any?

During the s to early s, I spent a lot of time tracking these down and trying to mail-order them from their publishers or national bookshops — which usually did not accept American dollars and wanted payment only in their own national currencies.

While not falling under the category of novels I might still have mentioned there are a number of short stories from the traditional myths of various African tribes.

    Those have been made into nice collections by Nick Greaves. They have stories mostly focussed around anthropomorphic at least mentally animals which explains various things from the natural world. For example a cheetah's claws don't retract because they actually traded paws with a wild dog to win a race against an antelope or that the black stripes on their face are tear stains from when a cheetahs cubs were stolen by man.

    I rated this 5 stars. It starts out strong Readability aside, it's a lot of rare info. The opening and Dutch section in particular is almost like something I might read in the book dealer trade journals, or articles about notable collections offered from auction houses The Reynard the Fox book, especially, has many qualities like connection to world history, notoriety, being banned that create the kind of coveted rarities that make antiquarian book dealers' bread and butter. I haven't checked what prices it gets. The Koolhaas book crosses world lit interest with niche focus and uniqueness among the author's works, making it great grist for this.

    I've sold very expensive books about his famous architect son, too. A really good scholarly article could be made about this stuff. Like, aimed outside fandom- a lot of this stuff is surely pretty minor. Especially since there are some relatively whacky-high amounts paid for these items sometimes. That would be something to mention for, like, alternative bibliohistory More "legitimately", check this out. Here's one of those trade journals I was talking about. Or I wonder if Bookride would have anything to say about anthropomorphic lit? You appear to have missed one of the most famous "animal as human" works in world literature--the Kalila wa Dimna.
