• Introduction: A Different Landscape ; I. The Gendered Landscape ; II. The Natural Landscape ; III. The Sublime Landscape ; IV. The Landscape of the Mind ; Afterword: Machado's Lives ; Bibliography

In her Introduction, Xon de Ros mentions her intention to confront the challenge of combining what Machado termed 'saber erudito, noticioso y libresco' (14) with a close reading of individual poems, and her hope that she will be able to offer 'new perspectives and vantage points from which to reconsider the varied landscapes of [Machado's] poetry' (15). She has acquitted herself brilliantly on both counts.
