Popis: Mud. Muddy. It is hard to find better words to capture the analytical promise and challenge of the Amazonian várzea. A place, a mythos, a landscape in all senses of the English word. Famously mercurial, as the essays here show, at once solid and fluid, stochastic and predictable, urban and rural, spatially and temporally dynamic, localized and globalized, home to creatures visible and invisible, to submerged histories, stubborn narrative, and overbearing memories, to elemental things of all kinds. By proposing a genealogy that starts with the work of three key scholars—Mark Harris, Edna Alencar, and Thierry Valentin—the editors refocus the venerable anthropological debates on humans and nature fought out so many times in this region and with such diverse outcomes. Here, recuperating landscape as a key ethnographic object co-constituted by varied yet specified human and non-human actors, these scholars reveal that the region is not only still open to generative experiments in thinking, writing, and political practice, but that it continues to be one of their most vital and ongoing locations. ; Book co-funded by ODYSSEA Project (UE H2020), UMR 208 PALOC (IRD, MNHN), Institut des Amériques

Abstrakt:Mud. Muddy. It is hard to find better words to capture the analytical promise and challenge of the Amazonian várzea. A place, a mythos, a landscape in all senses of the English word. Famously mercurial, as the essays here show, at once solid and fluid, stochastic and predictable, urban and rural, spatially and temporally dynamic, localized and globalized, home to creatures visible and invisible, to submerged histories, stubborn narrative, and overbearing memories, to elemental things of all kinds. By proposing a genealogy that starts with the work of three key scholars—Mark Harris, Edna Alencar, and Thierry Valentin—the editors refocus the venerable anthropological debates on humans and nature fought out so many times in this region and with such diverse outcomes. Here, recuperating landscape as a key ethnographic object co-constituted by varied yet specified human and non-human actors, these scholars reveal that the region is not only still open to generative experiments in thinking, writing, and political practice, but that it continues to be one of their most vital and ongoing locations. ; Book co-funded by ODYSSEA Project (UE H2020), UMR 208 PALOC (IRD, MNHN), Institut des Amériques
