"This volume stands at the forefront of one of the most exciting new fields of cross-disciplinary work. The editors have assembled a spectacular array of original contributions from an impressive group of authors, whose work opens new routes into the emerging field known as the geohumanities. It is bound to become a landmark book." Anthony J. Cascardi, Director, Townsend Center for the Humanities, U.C. Berkeley, USA.
"Making a compelling case for re-aligning geography with the humanities, GeoHumanities provides a series of richly-interwoven textual, visual and cartographic essays to demonstrate the creative potential of new forms of artistic, literary and historical engagement with place. Issuing a challenge to transcend disciplinary boundaries, to forge novel connections between past and present, and to re-imagine the world in novel ways, the contributors to GeoHumanities invite us to explore afresh the politics and poetics of place." Professor Peter Jackson, University of Sheffield, UK.
"The case studies chosen for the volume have much in common: they are contemporary projects that can elicit potential interdisciplinary interaction... Many can be contextualized through use of its companion volume Envisioning Landscapes. Together, both volumes forge a new era for geographic, cultural, urban, and regional studies." - Harvey K. Flad, Journal of Regional Science
In the past decade, there has been a convergence of transdisciplinary thought characterized by geography’s engagement with the humanities, and the humanities’ integration of place and the tools of geography into its studies.
GeoHumanities maps this emerging intellectual terrain with thirty cutting edge contributions from internationally renowned scholars, architects, artists, activists, and scientists. This book explores the humanities’ rapidly expanding engagement with geography, and the multi-methodological inquiries that analyze the meanings of place, and then reconstructs those meanings to provoke new knowledge as well as the possibility of altered political practices. It is no coincidence that the geohumanities are forcefully emerging at a time of immense intellectual and social change. This book focuses on a range of topics to address urgent contemporary imperatives, such as the link between creativity and place; altered practices of spatial literacy; the increasing complexity of visual representation in art, culture, and science and the ubiquitous presence of geospatial technologies in the Information Age.
GeoHumanties is essential reading for students wishing to understand the intellectual trends and forces driving scholarship and research at the intersections of geography and the humanities disciplines. These trends hold far-reaching implications for future work in these disciplines, and for understanding the changes gripping our societies and our globalizing world.
