520    "More than five hundred years after the fact, present-day 
       writers still use hyperbolic adjectives to describe the 
       "discovery" of the Americas. 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.
