After the introduction of CRISPR and off-the-shelf technology, corporate and home-based gene hackers have flooded the world with genetically altered humans and animals from ancient history, mythology, and demented imaginations. Surviving populations have withdrawn into walled cities and family compounds as monsters take over the world's wildernesses. An elvish brother and sister lead a caravan of genetically altered humans westward to a mountain sanctuary to escape persecution from purebred humans. The caravan of domesticated dinosaurs and gene-hacked animals crosses a country covered in carnivorous plants and animals, collecting genetically altered refugees looking for safety from a world on the edge of unaltered humanity's final extinction. Rated - 'Mature Plus' for 'some-but-not-extensive' graphic violence.

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. López explores the historical connections between political identities and the natural world. López 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 HernÁndez 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 soil—ranging from individual plants to forests and vegetated landscapes—and the importance they placed on indigeneity. It also points to the short- and long-term consequences of these efforts. López 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. López 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.

Crafting Mexico

Crafting Mexico

After Mexico’s revolution of 1910–1920, intellectuals sought to forge a unified cultural nation out of the country’s diverse populace. Their efforts resulted in an “ethnicized” interpretation of Mexicanness that intentionally incorporated elements of folk and indigenous culture. In this rich history, Rick A. LÓpez explains how thinkers and artists, including the anthropologist Manuel Gamio, the composer Carlos ChÁvez, the educator MoisÉs SÁenz, the painter Diego Rivera, and many less-known figures, formulated and promoted a notion of nationhood in which previously denigrated vernacular arts-dance, music, and handicrafts such as textiles, basketry, ceramics, wooden toys, and ritual masks-came to be seen as symbolic of Mexico’s modernity and national distinctiveness. LÓpez examines how the nationalist project intersected with transnational intellectual and artistic currents, as well as how it was adapted in rural communities. He provides an in-depth account of artisanal practices in the village of OlinalÁ, located in the mountainous southern state of Guerrero. Since the 1920s, OlinalÁ has been renowned for its lacquered boxes and gourds, which have been considered to be among the “most Mexican” of the nation’s arts. Crafting Mexico illuminates the role of cultural politics and visual production in Mexico’s transformation from a regionally and culturally fragmented country into a modern nation-state with an inclusive and compelling national identity.
