Notes

1. Jeffrey Nealon’s (2016) insights on plant thinking lead him to a brilliant re-reading of Foucault and Deleuze that posits a territorial thinking beyond sovereignty, but nevertheless he accompanies Marder in the task of legitimating plant theory strictly within the confines of poststructuralist theory.

2.My translation of all quotations from texts in other languages.

3.See Note 2 in Chapter 1.

4.I will use the term “vegetalism” in two senses here: as a general practice involving the plant world that includes thinking, and as a specific body of knowledge called “vegetalismo” or “vegetalista” in Peruvian Spanish vernacular, referring to the practice of mestizo healers in the Peruvian Amazon—see Luna (1986).
