Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Since the first moment of conquest, colonizers and the colonized alike in Mexico confronted questions about what it meant to be from this place, what natural resources it offered, and who had the right to control those resources and on what basis.Focusing on the ways people, environment, and policies have been affected by political boundaries, historian Rick A. Lopez explores the historical connections between political identities and the natural world. Lopez analyzes how scientific intellectuals laid claim to nature within Mexico, first on behalf of the Spanish Empire and then in the name of the republic, during three transformative moments: the HernAndez expedition of the late sixteenth century; the Royal Botanical Expedition of the late eighteenth century; and the heyday of scientific societies such as the Sociedad Mexicana de Historia Natural of the late nineteenth century.This work traces how scientific intellectuals studied and debated what it meant to know and claim the flora that sprang from Mexican soilranging from individual plants to forests and vegetated landscapesand the importance they placed on indigeneity. It also points to the short- and long-term consequences of these efforts. Lopez draws on archival and published sources produced from the sixteenth century through the start of the twentieth century and gives special attention to the use of visual images such as scientific illustrations and landscape art. Lopez employs the term visualization in recognition of the degree to which officials, botanists, and draftsmen produced imagery and also how they and others viewed nature.Rooted in Place reveals how scientific endeavors were not just about cataloging flora but were deeply intertwined with the construction of identity and the political landscape at three pivotal moments in Mexican history.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Rooted in Place traces historical transformations in the relationship between nature and imagined communities across three interlinked moments in the Renaissance, the Enlightenment, and the late nineteenth century in Mexico. It is the first major study of the relationship between understandings of nature and the creation of structures of rule within Mexico. The book intentionally weaves between environmental history, history of science, visual culture, and political history.
