  abstract: "Based on the analytical framework of Pulitzer Prize winning author Ernest Becker, Controlling Animals makes use of the notion of the heroic ideal to expose dysfunctional attempts at immortality through the interpretation of three works of fiction. Herein, this work will demonstrate to readers the flawed pursuit of attempting to avert death through the subjugation of animals. This pursuit is often orchestrated under the guise of the biblical concept of dominion from the Book of Genesis. In short, readers will gain a deeper understanding of the inextricable bond to the natural world and the fragile and tenuous existence in which humans live. The text also underscores the impending need by humans to make meaningful choices that are useful to the world while maintaining respect and deference to their animal co-inhabitants"--
