Verdejar ante a ruína. Escritos para cultivar novos mundos.

The book Verdejar ante a ruína. Escritos para cultivar novos mundos is a scientific publication proposed by Anai G. Vera Britos, Bianca Barbosa Chizzolini and Rafaela Coelho de Moraes Pitombo, students of the Department of Anthropology. Organized remotely during the pandemic and without the authors and authors knowing each other personally, the publication was born from the impetus to extrapolate the walls of the University and echo the debates of the discipline “Plant Interactions: Relations between humans, plants and other non-humans in the anthropological debate contemporary” given by Marta Amoroso, Karen Shiratori and Ana Gabriela Morim de Lima in the first half of 2020. The book is also a response to attacks directed at indigenous and traditional peoples, science and free thinking, a project that was exacerbated during the government Bolsonaro and common to different expressions of the far right in Latin America. Organized in five thematic axes – Vegetal Agency, Landscape Anthropization, Plant Poetics, Ecocide and Colonial Updates –, this publication combines contributions that explore different poetic languages ​​and visual supports in the areas of Anthropology, Indigenous Ethnology, Archeology, Sociology, Biology, Botany, Ecology, Visual and Verbal Arts and knowledge of indigenous and traditional peoples.
