Abstract

Zooliterature, also known as Animal Studies, is a set of literature works that contain discussions about the “animal world”, which reflects about the animal feature and the relationship between humans and animals. This area of literature studies has the capacity to make others reflect about the subject, and because of that it helps improving animals well-being. This work’s goal is to analyse the human-horse relationship inside Jose de Alencar’s book “O Gaúcho” and observe the beginning of this relation and what are the principal used by the main character regarding the horse, all that inside the scenario Pampa in the local culture, and with that develop an education of equine well being with a more local vision.
