Voices of Compassion: Historical to Modern Literary Perspectives on Vegetarianism

This thesis analyzes and compares the arguments, bold claims, and passionate beliefs that have shaped vegetarian literature for years. By exploring how authors have used their writing to argue for a plant-based diet, I uncover how these arguments connect and what they reveal about society’s deep-rooted beliefs. Through this thesis, I show that literature plays a crucial part in shaping our understanding of ethical and logical issues, and how these discussions about food go deeper than what’s on our plates–they’re about building a society that values ethics, logic, and compassion.
