Scott (human geography, Aberystwyth U., Wales) explores some of the ways that the viceroyalty's human and physical landscapes and its Amazon frontiers were experienced, portrayed, and negotiated both physically and discursively. In particular, she questions the notion of a unified and homogeneous Spanish geographical imagination that was diametrically opposed to Amerindian understandings and perceptions of landscape. Most of the perceptions she describes were in colonial Peru, but some were in mother Spain. The study began as her . dissertation for Cambridge University, and parts of it have been published previously. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
