解説

A transatlantic, more-than-human exploration of LatinX presence, memory, and empire in the heart of Madrid

How does LatinXness begin in the Kingdom of Spain? In The X Catalogue, Claudia Milian offers a vade mecum of Madrid, exploring it as an ecological archive and former imperial metropolis. Approaching the "X" as metaphor, method, and philosophical practice, she extends inquiry beyond the human. Milian traces the "X" through transplanted life from the Americas: the roots of the ahuehuete tree (the Montezuma cypress), the engineering and renaming of the acocoxochitl (the dahlia), the "invasion" of the cotorras argentinas (Monk parakeets), and the exhibition of the caiman (the alligator) as a conquered object.

Critical theory and historical cultural studies meet to remap the Atlantic world through the "Xs" of arrival, circulation, and transformation. By examining how LatinXness inhabits the Spanish capital, Milian breaks open LatinX Spain and global LatinX studies. The X Catalogue resists containment, mirroring its objects of study and challenging categories such as native, foreign, or authentic. It advances a more-than-human, transatlantic understanding of LatinXness within empire studies, environmental humanities, and the critical study of tourism.
