Specifically, the contributions are focused on two key entanglements: water and food, both of which serve as critical examples of how matter and meaning are intertwined. The chapters cover a wide variety of issues: Latin American water issues linked to indigeneity and social justice, the meaning of the Magdalena River in Colombia, fish, the true meaning of ‘paella’, or a reimagination of traditional Jewish Venetian menus from an ecocritical perspective. All are aimed to deepen and broaden the discussion about meaning and matter, emphasizing the significance of stories and imagination while outlining the vast network of agencies that shape our world.
