20.500.12556/RUL-151059 Romantic narratives on nature and environment in meat-focused food documentaries The article looks at the discourses of five selected Western food documentaries released in the last decade that deal with meat production and animal agriculture and their impact on the environment, animal welfare, and nature. The article finds that the documentaries employ discourses about nature that involve highly romanticized notions of nature, the environment, and animals that nostalgically harken back to the premodern, pastoral, artisanal, and peasant ethos. In the studied documentaries, nature is portrayed as a victim of modern technologies, but also as an avenging and self-restoring entity. Although the Romantic visions of pristine nature and natural meat and food production are grounded in the late eighteenth century, they remain an important source of skepticism and critique of capitalist, industrial, scientific, and technological forms of food- and meat production. By applying the method of multimodal critical discourse analysis, this study reflects on the nature of Romantic representations and the potential meanings of visual, auditory, and linguistic features in the selected documentaries, as well as the potential of Romantic thought to trigger paradigmatic shifts in the way nature is affected by the meat system. nature environment meat Romanticism documentary movies mesna industrija živinoreja narava okolje dokumentarni filmi analiza diskurza true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2023-09-28 10:52:56 2023-09-28 10:53:00 2024-06-06 04:12:49 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2024 0 0 Str. 889–906 no. 3 Vol. 27 2024 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 791.229.2:338.439.4:637.5 1552-8014 10.1080/15528014.2023.2260974 166159875 Romantic_Narratives_on_Nature_and_Environment_in_Meat-Focused_Food_Documentaries.pdf Romantic_Narratives_on_Nature_and_Environment_in_Meat-Focused_Food_Documentaries.pdf 1 3BB5ED1F12E0486CE60965A462926FB7 ba1b1bd8c45e4ce60ee92d2bd1c6c3464b8a27e4a4214a16f23dea38466b7c0b ee7b5893-2341-11ef-b111-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=185905 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/15528014.2023.2260974 0 e8746eb7-5ddc-11ee-8519-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=175943 Fakulteta za družbene vede 0 0 0
