From its foundation in ,the Royal Geographical Society (with the Institute of British Geographers) supported explorers and scholars, many of whom in the nineteenth century recorded places on maps or charts for the first time. Originally, the Society’s involvement in mapping was closely linked to Victorian geographers and explorers traveling out into the world and gathering the new knowledge to fill in to the blanks on their maps. Through the work of individuals such as Livingstone and Stanley, Grant and Speke and many others, the ‘west’ built up a clearer description of our world, with the map a key aspect of that description and an artefact that supported a wide range of colonial endeavours. Alongside such work, the Society also built up one of the world’s great collections of maps, atlases and globes. The Society has also collected, and makes publically available, more than one million sheets of maps – the world’s largest private holding.

In this richly illustrated book, Laura Vaughan examines maps of ethnic or religious difference, poverty, and health Mapping inequalities, demonstrating how they not only serve as historical records of social enquiry, but also constitute inscriptions of social patterns that have been etched deeply on the surface of cities. Society The book covers themes such as the use of visual rhetoric to change public Society opinion, the evolution of sociology as an academic practice, changing attitudes to The Spatial Dimensions physical disorder, and the complexity of segregation as an urban phenomenon. While the focus is on historical maps, the narrative carries the discussion of the of Social Cartography spatial dimensions of social cartography forward to the present day, showing how disciplines such as public health, crime science, and urban planning, chart spatial data in their current practice. Containing examples of space syntax analysis alongside full-colour maps and photographs, this volume will appeal to all those interested in the long-term forces that shape how people live in cities. Laura Vaughan is Professor of Urban Form and Society at the Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL. In addition to her research into social cartography, she has Vaughan Laura written on many other critical aspects of urbanism today, including her previous book for UCL Press, Suburban Urbanities: Suburbs and the Life of the High Street.

Esto es, en medio del Reino Unido de Gran Bretaña e Irlanda del Norte (United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland) formado por Inglaterra, Escocia, Gales e Irlanda del Norte (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland ) desde mediados del siglo XVIII se vino desarrollando un proceso de institucionalización de la Geografía que bien puede encuadrarse en períodos Clásico, Moderno y Contemporáneo al seguir la línea de pensamiento histórico-geográfico del geógrafo estadounidense Preston E. James (VER: All Possible Worlds. A History of Geographical Ideas; Indianapolis*NewYork, The Odyssey Press a Division of The Bobbs-Merrill Co., Inc. 1972, (622 pages). El período Clásico abarca desde los inicios de la Geografía por miles de años desde los sombríos inicios del pensamiento geográfico de los helenos o griegos hasta las contribuciones de los europeos – alemanes Alexander von Humboldt y Carl Ritter, no más allá de la mitad del siglo XIX. El período Moderno se inicia en la última parte del siglo XIX; es distinguido por el aspecto del campo profesional llamado Geografía - es decir, un campo de estudio en el cual se educó a estudiantes que podría ganar una vida siendo Geógrafos.

  • Geography and Vision
    Geography and Vision Vision and visual imagery have always played a central role in geographical under- standing, and geographical description has traditionally sought to present its audience with rich and compelling visual images, be they the elaborate cosmo- graphic images of seventeenth century Europe or the computer and satellite imagery of modern geographical information science. Yet the significance of images goes well beyond the mere transcription of spatial and environmental facts and today there is a marked unease among some geographers about their discipline’s association with the pictorial. The expressive authority of visual images has been subverted, shifting attention from the integrity of the image itself towards the expression of truths that lie elsewhere than the surface. In Geography and Vision leading geographer Denis Cosgrove provides a series of personal reflections on the complex connections between seeing, imagining and representing the world geographically. In a series of eloquent and original essays he draws upon pictorial images – including maps, sketches, cartoons, paintings, and photographs – to explore and elaborate upon the many and varied ways in which the vast and varied earth, and at times the heavens beyond, have been both imagined and represented as a place of human habitation. Ranging historically from the sixteenth century to the present day, the essays include reflections upon geographical discovery and Renaissance landscape; urban cartography and utopian visions; ideas of landscape and the shaping of America; widerness and masculinity; conceptions of the Pacific; and the imaginative grip of the Equator. Extensively illustrated, this engaging work reveals the richness and complexity of the geographical imagination as expressed over the past five centuries.

  • The Influence of Denis Cosgrove in the Field of Geography
    Symbolic Discourses: The Influence of Denis Cosgrove in the Field of Geography Stacie A. Townsend University of California, Davis “There is no such thing as an uninteresting landscape!” —Denis Cosgrove Introduction Denis Cosgrove was a true humanist and a leader in the field of human- istic geography. Drawn deeply to “the idea of genius loci, the spirit of place” (Daniels 2009: 15), Cosgrove was a stalwart for the academic expressive powers of human geography’s interface with the humanities. Places mattered deeply to Denis Cosgrove, and he found it difficult to understand cultural geographers who did not share his abiding interest in landscape and land- scape studies (Duncan 2009: 9). However, it was not landscape alone that held his interest. In his faculty biography for the University of California, Los Angeles (his last faculty appointment), Denis described his work over his career as transforming from a focus on landscape meaning in human/ cultural geography to a broader concern with: … the role of spatial images and representations in the making and communicating of knowledge… [especially] the role played by visual images in shaping geographical imaginations and thus in the con- nections between Geography as a formal discipline and imaginative expressions of geographical knowledge and experience in the visual arts (including cartography). (Cosgrove 2008) Quite a hefty statement of purpose, so to speak, but it is entirely representa- tive of Cosgrove’s areas of research interest as well as his scope of influence in the larger field of geography. Appropriately enough for a geographer with humanist tendencies, Cosgrove was a true Renaissance man of the field a (“polymath reminiscent of the Renaissance humanists he admired” [The Independent 2008]); in no sense was he limited in terms of the scope of his produced knowledge.

Contemporary Issues in Geography and Education (CIGE) was the journal of the Association of Curriculum Development in Geography (ACDG): a pan-institutional collective of school geography teachers, authors, artists, activists and academics who desired a vision of school geography informed from the political Left, to enable the voices of those excluded from power to be explored and heard, and to offer up an alternative version of disciplinary geographical knowledge-making.

  • Envisioning Landscapes, Making Worlds
    ENVISIONING LANDSCAPES, MAKING WORLDS The past decade has witnessed a remarkable resurgence in the intellectual interplay between geography and the humanities in both academic and public circles. The metaphors and concepts of geography now permeate literature, philosophy, and the arts. Concepts such as space, place, landscape, mapping and territory have become pervasive as conceptual frame- works and core metaphors in recent publications by humanities scholars and well-known writers. Envisioning Landscapes, Making Worlds contains over 25 contributions from leading scholars who have engaged this vital intellectual project from various perspectives, both inside and outside of the fi eld of geography. The book is divided into four sections representing different modes of examining the depth and complexity of human meaning invested in maps, attached to landscapes, and embedded in the spaces and places of modern life. The topics covered range widely and include interpretations of space, place, and landscape in literature and the visual arts, philosophical refl ections on geographical knowledge, cultural imagination in scientifi c exploration and travel accounts, and expanded geographical understanding through digital and participatory methodologies. The clashing and blending of cultures caused by globaliza- tion and the new technologies that profoundly alter human environmental experience suggest new geographical narratives and representations that are explored here by a multidisciplinary group of authors. This book is essential reading for students, scholars, and interested general readers seeking to understand the new synergies and creative interplay emerging from this broad intellectual engagement with meaning and geographic experience. Stephen Daniels is Professor of Cultural Geography at the University of Nottingham, UK. Dydia DeLyser is Associate Professor of Geography at Louisiana State University, USA.
