"Minding Animals is a welcome addition to the growing body of studies about animals in Hispanism. It shows how early Spanish literature advocates the mindedness of animals and teaches nuanced meanings of anthropomorphism as a productive way to understand animals." - John Beusterien, Texas Tech University (Bulletin of Spanish Studies, Volume XCVI, Number 10, 2019) "Steven Wagschal's book is a goldmine of information about animal minds." - Marc Bekoff (Psychology Today) "This is a fine example of literary research and writing that ties into recent trends in interdisciplinary human–animal studies, ethology, and medieval and early modern studies."- Martha Few, Pennsylvania State University (Bulletin of the Comediantes) "Minding Animals is a carefully researched, accessible, and highly readable book that makes a valuable contribution to the history of animal cognition."- Helen Cowie, University of York (Speculum)
