Reading Maps with La vorágine : Cartographic Illusion on the Río Negro -- Sensing Like a Shaman, Seeing Like a State: Guayana According to Rómulo Gallegos -- The Upper Marañón, the Summer Institute of Linguistics, and the Nobel Laureate -- Extractivism in Iquitos: From Rubber to Ayahuasca Literature -- The Remains of Modern(ista) Export Routes along the Madeira and the Mamoré.
By tracing the political and ecological consequences of charting the Amazon River basin in narrative fiction, Mapping the Amazon examines how widely read twentieth-century novels by José Eustasio Rivera, Rómulo Gallegos, Mario Vargas Llosa, César Calvo, Márcio Souza, and Mário de Andrade have both represented and shaped the region long after publication.
