Summary/Abstract: The article aims at presenting the views of a French philosopher Elisabeth de Fontanay on the issue of proximity between the Shoah and the inhuman, industrial treatment of animals. The author not only explains the history of such a contextualisation of the problem, but also tackles the question of the meaning of a sacrifice, which is a term often used to define both the extermination of the Jews and the mass animal slaughter.
