The common genet (genetta genetta) in Europe: a biological and ecocritical analysis

The case of the Common Genet (Genetta genetta; Mammalia, Carnivora) shows how comparative literature, using ecocriticism as a framework, can work in com-bination with natural science to address and solve some enigmas related to the pre-sence of the species in Europe. This paper shows how literary an...
