[email protected] Office hours: Tues. noon-2.00pm, Thurs. noon -2.00pm, and by appointment Course Prospectus Spring 2010 Geography 318 addresses ontological and epistemological aspects of explanation in geography. We examine explanation from the standpoint of various philosophies of science, reviewing dominant explanatory forms, as well as alternatives, such as those from the positions of positivism, phenomenology, structuralism, realism, Marxism, postmodernism and feminism. We also try to improve basic graduate skills of writing, editing, oral presentation, argument. Geography 318 is one of the core classes in the Geography graduate program. You are expected to participate fully (including speaking frequently, clearly, coherently and audibly during discussion), do all the reading, and present effectively, coherently and precisely. Requirements: 1 short essay; one longer essay at the end of the semester; you will lead several class discussions; you will give a lecture. You will be graded on all these requirements. Discussions with numbers (eg 3A) are led by members of the class. Text: R.

Handbook of the American Association of Geographers
Handbook of the American Association of Geographers About the AAG Logo The AAG logo consists of a world map on the Berghaus Star projection within two concentric circles containing the name of the organization and the year of its founding (1904). The Association adopted the logo in 1911. Star projections were developed in Austria and Germany in the second half of the nineteenth century. The Berghaus Star projection, developed in 1879 by Hermann Berghaus at the Perthes publishing house in Gotha, Germany is a modification of earlier star projections. It retains the polar azimuthal characteristics of its predecessors, but interrupts the southern hemisphere only five times (at longitudes 16, 88, and 160 degrees West, and 56 and 128 degrees East). The earlier star projections interrupted the southern hemisphere at eight longitudes. 1 CONSTITUTION OF THE ASSOCIATION OF AMERICAN GEOGRAPHERS (Updated July 2020) I. Name. The name of the organization shall be the Association of American Geographers. II. Objectives. The objectives of the Association shall be to further professional investigations in geography and to encourage the application of geographic findings in education, government, and business. The Association shall support these objectives by promoting acquaintance and discussion among its members and with scholars in related fields by stimulating research and scientific exploration, by encouraging the publication of scholarly studies, and by performing services to aid the advancement of its members and the field of geography. The Associa- tion shall receive and administer funds in support of research and publication in the field of geography. III. Membership 1. Individual Members.

Anne Buttimer 1938–2017. Geography and Biography Federico Ferretti Alun Jones UCD School of Geography On 15 July 2017, sad news began to circulate in geographical milieus that Anne Buttimer had passed away. Buttimer was an international, transcultural and cosmopolitan geographer, known internationally for her innovative research, her command of languages, her humanity. To write her biography is a challenging task, but simultaneously an inspiring one, not least because she was one of the geographers most committed to the values of biography (and autobiography) in the discipline. Through the Dialogue Project that she launched with Torsten Hägerstrand, she valued life experiences as a critical tool in making sense of geographical engagement and was one of the co-founders of the IGU Commission on the History of Geography.

Classics in Theories of Space
Classics in Theories of Space National Ph. D. course in Human geography, Spring Term - 2019 Course Organizers Mekonnen Tesfahuney, Professor, Karlstad University ([email protected]) Tomas Germundsson, Professor, Lund University ([email protected]) Richard Ek, Associate Professor, Lund University, Campus Helsingborg ([email protected]) Guest lecturer: Professor Gillian Rose, University of Oxford Course Syllabus The present course offers advanced knowledge of spatial theories by examining key/classical texts on the subject. It is broadly structured along three major conceptions of space: (1) Spatial Science, (2) Humanistic Geographic Conceptions of Space, and (3) Relational conceptions of space. The course offers a (philosophical) history of conceptions of space as laid out by key protagonists. As such, the course is not only a journey through the canonical notions of space but also a mapping of the geographies of the disciplinary canon as well. The course consists of readings of a selection of classical texts, combined with parallel thematic lectures and seminars addressing the three key themes and related sub-themes. In addition to a final paper which will be presented in a course paper seminar, students will also submit critical readings of a selection of course literature in writing.

1 Anne Buttimer’s The Practice of Geography: Approaching the history of geography through autobiography Michael Jones Department of Geography, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, NO-7491 Trondheim, Norway E-mail: [email protected] 2 Anne Buttimer’s The Practice of Geography: Approaching the history of geography through autobiography Abstract The article examines the autobiographical approach presented by Anne Buttimer in her book The Practice of Geography (1983) and traces its influence on geographical historiography. Anne Buttimer contributed to the history of geography through histories of ideas, biographies, and autobiographical interviews. Derived from the International Dialogue Project at Lund University, Sweden, The Practice of Geography pioneered systematic publication of autobiographical essays and interviews with geographers. The article surveys how her work has inspired further use of autobiographical approaches to the history of geography both within and beyond the Nordic countries, including recent work on theoretical issues. The survey adopts a gender perspective. The article discusses finally some methodological and ethical implications of autobiography. Keywords: Anne Buttimer, autobiography, history of geography, The Practice of Geography Introduction The publication thirty-five years ago of The Practice of Geography by Anne Buttimer (1983a) presented autobiography as a radically new approach to the historiography of the discipline of geography. She wrote: ‘Autobiographies can … shed light on essential questions about the history of the field, and social construction of its thought and practice, thus offering a critical complement to conventional approaches which rest on archival records’ (Buttimer 1983b, 5). Anne Buttimer (1938–2017) was born in Cork, Ireland. She took an MA in geography at University College Cork in 1958, and a PhD at the University of Washington in Seattle in 1965.
