Genre (and) interpretations: fables, tales of animal bridegrooms (the beauty and the beast archetype) and animal wives, and the interpretations thereof.

Along the lines of the fable Baba’s Bilka (Babina Bilka, recorded by Maja Bošković-Stulli in Gorjani near Đakovo in 1957, as narrated by Stipan Lović, b. 1894), its possible interpretations will be considered—the totemic (e.g., Boria Sax), psychoanalytic (e.g., Bruno Bettelheim), feminist (e.g., Heide Göttner-Abendroth), and ecofeminist interpretations, as well as the context of mythic zoophilia (e.g., Midas Dekkers). Based on the aforementioned interpretative niches, the indications of the return of the human-animal unification in the form of mythic cyborgs in science fantasy (using selected examples) and in the Anthropocene within the framework of global ecocide will be sought.
