From the Pampas lowlands of Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil to the Altiplano plateau that stretches between Chile and Peru, the plains of Latin America have haunted the literature and culture of the continent. Bringing these landscapes into focus as a major subject of Latin American culture, this book outlines innovative new ecocritcial readings of canonical literary texts from the 19th century to the present. Tracing these natural landscapes across national borders the book develops a new transnational understanding of Hispanic culture in South America and expands the scope of the contemporary environmental humanities.Texts covered include works by: Ciro Alegria, Manoel de Barros, Ezequiel Martinez Estrada, Romulo Gallegos, Jose Eustasio Rivera, Joao Guimaraes Rosa, and Domingo Sarmiento.
