This contribution traces the evolution of a specific topic in the Disputatio between Francesco Pucci and Fausto Sozzini: the differentiation between man and animal. Addressing the ethical consequences of this distinction, the author argues that this topic plays an important role in the four texts which Pucci and Sozzini exchanged between 1577 and 1578. In particular, the essay considers the question about man's ethical behaviour towards animals and the arguments for and against vegetarianism, as they are developed alongside the discussion of Adam's nature before and after the fall.

Abstract
This contribution traces the evolution of a specific topic in the Disputatio between Francesco Pucci and Fausto Sozzini: the differentiation between man and animal. Addressing the ethical consequences of this distinction, the author argues that this topic plays an important role in the four texts which Pucci and Sozzini exchanged between 1577 and 1578. In particular, the essay considers the question about man's ethical behaviour towards animals and the arguments for and against vegetarianism, as they are developed alongside the discussion of Adam's nature before and after the fall.File in questo prodotto:
