Columbus's crossing of the Atlantic--and the age of exploration that ensued-- dramatically and forever changed the early modern world. The societies, economies, cultures, arts, and burgeoning sciences of Europe were quickly transformed by the ongoing encounter with the New World. The meeting of the New and the Old Worlds, however, was more than a meeting of disparate civilizations. It was also a confluence of exciting and often surprising associations that continually created new interfaces between materials and knowledge. The Western and Eastern Hemispheres, brought together by sailing ships for the first time on a large scale, helped create the global landscape we take for granted today. Central to this formative moment in global history were New World plants. The agriculture of indigenous peoples mythically and materially shaped English society and, subsequently, its literature in new and startling ways. Sacred Seeds examines New World plants --tobacco, amaranth, guaiacum, and the prickly pear cactus --and their associated Native myths as they moved across the Atlantic and into English literature. Edward McLean Test reinstates the contributions of indigenous peoples to European society, charting an alternative cultural history that explores the associations and assemblages of transatlantic multiplicity rather than Eurocentric homogeny"--|cProvided by publisher. 520 "Sacred Seeds examines New World plants and their associated Native myths as they moved across the Atlantic and into English literature"--|cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on January 09, 2019). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 1500-1700|2fast 650 0 English literature|yEarly modern, 1500-1700|xHistory and criticism.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2008119581 650 0 Gardens in literature.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85053151 650 0 Plants in literature.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85103037 650 0 Indigenous peoples|zAmerica|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2020008730|xInfluence.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002005444 650 0 Nature|xReligious aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh85090278 650 7 Gardens in literature.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /937933 650 7 Plants in literature.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1066136 650 7 Indigenous peoples.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 970213 650 7 Nature|xReligious aspects.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1034594 650 7 Civilization.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/862898 651 0 America|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85004220|xIn literature.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh2002011414 651 0 Europe|xCivilization|xAmerican influences.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85045643 651 7 America.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1239786 651 7 Europe.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1245064 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 776 08 |iPrint version:|aTest, Edward McLean.|tSacred seeds. |dLincoln : University of Nebraska Press, 2019 |z9781496207883|w(DLC) 2018023683|w(OCoLC)1031918394 830 0 Early modern cultural studies (Lincoln, Neb.)|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2014094730 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1946736|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
