Summary/Abstract: This review article presents the journal Zoophilologica: Polish Journal of Animal Studies, its scientific profile, the published articles’ positioning in the research field of animal studies and their content in relation to global achievements. Jarzębowska highlights the journal’s interdisciplinary nature and its roots in literary studies. The journal’s presence on the Polish publishing market, she argues further, may have a positive effect on the visibility of studies on the relationship between humans and other species – studies rooted in a local context that may also counterbalance dominant Anglo-American narratives.
