This article presents and discusses two contemporary receptions of the idea of “animal”. First, I deal with the conception of animal as an adversary to humans. Next, I discuss the idea according to which sentient animals must be treated, affectively and juridically, as fellows of human beings. Following the consideration of the later positions, I propose that, beyond their differences both are linked to metaphysics of personal capacities from which animals are offered a name, an origin and an end.
