From Routledge's website: "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."
The Map of Early Modern London
The Map of Early Modern London is a digital atlas of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century London based on the 1560s “Agas” woodcut map. Nearly 1000 sites and streets are linked to pages that will provide a description, quotations from contemporary sources, links to other information, and a bibliography of literary references. The project offers a platform for dynamic editions of topographical and peripatetic texts (e.g., street pageants), a publication venue for scholarly research, a compilation of links, and an annotated bibliography of early modern studies in Literary London. The project was taken under the aegis of TAPoR in 2005. Re-encoding in XML with TEI P5 tagging and creation of eXist databases were completed in March 2006. The interactive layered map went live in August 2006. The library of diplomatic transcriptions continues to grow, as do the entries in the “Personography” and the “Concordance of Literary References.” The Advisory Board and Editorial Board will oversee further developments and all contributions will undergo a refereeing process. The site maintains its pedagogical origins by employing student research assistants and publishing exemplary student projects. The project is affiliated with the Guildhall Library (London) and the journal Early Theatre, and indexed in the MLA International Bibliography. MoEML attracts about 500,000 hits and about 350,000 page downloads per month. Contributions and correspondence are welcome.
