Timeline

1818

In the same year, she published the monograph Reading Veganism: The Monstrous Vegan, 1818 to Present with Oxford University Press's Oxford English Monographs series.

This book was based on Quinn's doctoral thesis.

In 2021, Quinn an became editor of the Oxford University Press and English Association journal The Year's Work in Cultural and Critical Theory, and, in 2022, Edinburgh University Press published The Edinburgh Companion to Vegan Literary Studies, which Quinn co-edited with Laura Wright.

Drawing upon queer theory, especially Susan Sontag's essay "Notes on 'Camp'", Quinn argues for a vegan form of the camp aesthetic that she calls "vegan camp".

She defines this as

"an aesthetic lens and sensibility that, while acknowledging the extremity of animal suffering, seeks to draw sustenance from what has previously only caused pain. It ... offers a riposte to the unprecedented scale of animal death and the lived experience of late capitalism in which political resistance feels futile. In drawing pleasure from a state of mass violence, vegan camp provides sustenance for individual vegans while refusing a damaging sense of the vegan as a morally righteous 'beautiful soul.' ... A camp sensibility performs the inescapable complicity of vegan lives in mass suffering. This performance of complicity ... provides a way of working through horror and continuing to fight for change in the face of the seeming impossibility of living an ethical life. In this sense, complicity affords a temporary mode of ethical affiliation, a way of occupying the present that acknowledges rather than castigates feelings of failure and insufficiency."

Examples of the vegan camp aesthetic identified by Quinn include a work of scrimshaw in the Hull Maritime Museum's Turner and the Whale exhibition, Lady Gaga's meat dress, and certain mock meats.

Reading Veganism introduces the "monstrous vegan".

Quinn identifies four traits of the monstrous vegan:

"First, monstrous vegans do not eat animals, an abstinence that generates a seemingly inexplicable anxiety in those who encounter them. Second, they are hybrid assemblages of human and nonhuman parts, destabilizing species boundaries. Third, monstrous vegans are sired outside of heterosexual reproduction, the product of male acts of creation. And, finally, monstrous vegans are intimately connected to acts of writing and literary creation."

The trope of the monstrous vegan begins, Quinn argues in Reading Veganism, with the creature created by Victor Frankenstein in Mary Shelley's 1818 novel Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus.

She further identifies monstrous vegans in the work of H. G. Wells (including The Island of Doctor Moreau and The Time Machine), Margaret Atwood (including the MaddAddam trilogy), J. M. Coetzee (specifically the character Elizabeth Costello of the eponymous novel and The Lives of Animals), and Alan Hollinghurst (in The Swimming-Pool Library and The Sparsholt Affair).
