Milpa describes a small subsistence corn farm. It is derived from the word <em>milli</em> (field, or a piece of land under active cultivation) in Nahuatl. The milpa is a farming practice that uses perennial, intercropping, and swidden (fire and fallow) techniques that predates the Spanish conquest of the Americas.</p><p><em>Kneeling Before Corn</em> focuses on the intimate relations that develop between plants and humans in the milpas of the northern rural region of El Salvador. It explores the ways in which more-than-human intimacies travel away from and return to the milpa through human networks.</p><p>Collective and multivocal, this work reflects independent lines of investigation and multiple conversations between co-authorsall of whom have lived in El Salvador for extended periods of time. Throughout the six chapters, the co-authors invite readers to consider more-than-human intimacies by rethinking, experimenting with, and developing new ways of documenting, analyzing, and knowing the intimacies that form between humans and the plants that they cultivate, conserve, long for, and eat. This book offers an innovative account of rural El Salvador in the twenty-first century.</p>...4618366Kneeling Before Corn517718https://www.gandhi.com.mx/kneeling-before-corn-9780816553389/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/4428612/image.jpg?v=638472685351200000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20249780816553389_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9780816553389_<p>The cultivation of the three sisters (corn, beans, and squash) on subsistence farms in El Salvador is a multispecies, world-making, and ongoing process.
