Gerassi-Navarro brings together U.S. and Latin American Studies with her analysis of the travel narratives of Frances Calderón de la Barca and Elizabeth Cary Agassiz. Inspired by the writings of Alexander von Humboldt these women, in their travels, expand his views on the tropics to include a social dimension to their observations on nature, culture, race, and progress in Brazil and Mexico. Highlighting the role of women as a new kind of observer as well as the complexity of connections between the United States and Latin America, Gerassi-Navarro interweaves science, politics, and aesthetics in new transnational frameworks. 000827540 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000827540 60010 $$aCalderón de la Barca,$$cMadame$$q(Frances Erskine Inglis),$$d1804?-1882.$$tLife in Mexico. 000827540 60010 $$aAgassiz, Elizabeth Cabot Cary,$$d1822-1907.$$tJourney in Brazil. 000827540 650_0 $$aTravelers' writings$$xWomen authors. 000827540 651_0 $$aLatin America$$xDescription and travel. 000827540 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z331961505X$$z9783319615059$$w(OCoLC)988292470 000827540 830_0 $$aPalgrave studies in literature, science, and medicine. 000827540 852__ $$bebk 000827540 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-61506-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000827540 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:827540$$pGLOBAL_SET 000827540 980__ $$aEBOOK 000827540 980__ $$aBIB 000827540 982__ $$aEbook 000827540 983__ $$aOnline 000827540 994__ $$a92$$bISE
