Includes bibliographical references and index.

To discover, an intransitive verb: Christopher Columbus's first encounter with the American landscape/ Beatriz Rivera-Barnes -- Is there such a thing as too much water? the hurricanes that foundered and the swamps that hindered Alvar Nâunez Cabeza de Vaca / Beatriz Rivera-Barnes-- Picaresque nature: conquistadors, parrots, parasites, mimics/ Beatriz Rivera-Barnes -- Andrâes Bello's "Ode to tropical agriculture": thelandscape of independence / Jerry Hoeg -- "I do not weep for Camaguey":Gertrudis Gâomez de Avellaneda's nineteenth-century Cuban landscape/Beatriz Rivera-Barnes -- Rebellion in the backlands (Os Sertäoes) : the Darwinian landscape / Jerry Hoeg -- Yuyos are not weeds :an ecocritical approach to Horacio Quiroga / Beatriz Rivera-Barnes -- The landscapes of Venezuela:Doäna Bâarbara/ Jerry Hoeg -- "It didn't work, mother. You should have let me stay here." Alegrâia's and Flakoll's Ashes of Izalco / Beatriz Rivera-Barnes -- Pablo Neruda's Latin American landscape: nations, economy, nature/ Beatriz Rivera-Barnes -- Love in the time of Somoza: Gioconda Belli's ambivalent ecofeminism / Beatriz Rivera-Barnes -- The landscape of the consumer society: Fernando Contreras Castro's Unica mirando al mar / Jerry Hoeg.

This book is an interdisciplinary approach to Latin American literatures and ecology. The research spans Latin America, including Brazil, from its beginnings in 1492 up to the present time. Rivera-Barnes and Hoeg analyze the relationship between literature and the environment in both literaryand testimonial texts, scrutinizing the ecological implications and the relationship between man andnature, or nature and culture. Some of the questions involved in this approach are: How does a textrepresent the physical world? What moral questions are raised relativeto man's interaction with nature? How does a text bring the reader's awareness to a specific ecosystem? This approach will prove that environmental degradation is a tangible and measurable reality and this book will contribute tothe on-going dialogue between the arts and the sciences.
