Więcej o książce
Exploring the intersection of geology and culture in the nineteenth century, Dana Luciano reveals how geological science influenced American perceptions of the earth and humanity's place within it. Through a blend of historical writings and literature, she introduces the concept of "geological fantasy," which transformed scientific understanding into a sensory experience, intertwining fact with imagination. This approach not only fostered emotional connections to the earth but also reinforced narratives of racial superiority and evolution, highlighting the complex dynamics of power, race, and colonization in American society.
