From Harriet Beecher Stowe’s image of the Mississippi's “bosom” to Thoreau’s Cape Cod as “the bared and bended arm of Massachusetts,” the American environment has been represented in terms of the human body. Exploring such instances of embodiment, Tichi exposes the historically varied and often contrary geomorphic expression of a national paradigm.
