Abstract
The article discusses two books that make an interesting contribution to the development of ethical refl ection on the relationship between humans and an-imals. These are: Face to face with animals. Levinas and Animal question edited by Peter Atterton and Tamara Wright, whose authors, followers of the French philosopher Emmanuel Levinas, address the ethical status of animals in the 168BŤŵťŤŵŤ NŬŨŧȌźŬŨŧŽŮŤlight of the “Other” and “Face” concepts, and the book: Ethical Condemnation of Hunting edited by Dorota Probucka – a collection of essays exposing myths, lies and pathologies accompanying the killing of animals for sport or entertain-ment. The authors of both collections of essays draw attention to the reasons and mechanisms for excluding animals from the sphere of philosophical refl ec-tion and human morality and give strong arguments for restoring their proper ethical status.
