Sinopsis:

In Cultural Encounters with the Environment, a distinguished group of contributors offers a fresh and original view of contemporary geography. The authors explore the role of four traditional themes in the “new cultural geography”: the interplay between the evolution of particular biophysical niches and the activities of the culture groups that inhabit them; the diffusion of cultural traits; the establishment and definition of culture areas; and the distinctive mix of geographical characteristics that gives places their special character in relation to one another. By examining how cultural space is constructed; how environment is remade, understood, and imaged as a consequence; and how people lay claim to place, this volume establishes a compelling case for the importance of these enduring concepts to present and future trajectories in cultural geography.

Acerca de los autores: Alexander B. Murphy is past president of the AAG and a member of the geography faculty at the University of Oregon, where he long held the James F. and Shirley K. Rippey Chair in Liberal Arts and Sciences. He is also a member of the Academia Europaea.

David Lowenthal is D'Alzon Professor of Political Science at Assumption College.
