In the framework of the global socioecological crisis, the figure of the earth is presented as an alternative paradigm to the anthropocentric model. The essays collected in this volume explore material, discursive, cultural, and literary manifestations related to land in Latin America from the 19th century to the present. Focusing attention on a specific geopoetic space and, based on a situated epistemology, these essays debate alternative imaginaries against the system of Western modernity.
