Abstract
This essay addresses the repression of considerations of human-animal relations in postcolonial studies. It suggests that because the field has not fully examined its own anthropocentrism, it continues to reproduce a rather conventional humanism in spite of many claims to the contrary. A central argument of the essay is that in failing to recognize the subjectivity of nonhuman animals, and accepting their exclusion from a moral universe reserved for humans, postcolonial criticism participates in the symbolic and physical violence committed against them. In terms of approach, the essay begins by tracing three humanist “moments” in the career of postcolonialism. This is followed by an assessment of the recent ecocritical turn in postcolonial literary studies. The essay concludes by considering whether humanism does in fact need to be overcome and what remains to be done for postcolonial thinking to more adequately confront “the question of the animal.”

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
