Abstract

Geography and History is the first book for more than a century to examine comprehensively the interdependence of the two disciplines. Alan Baker, an internationally honoured historical geographer, focuses upon the work of North American, British and French historians and geographers but takes a global and interdisciplinary perspective upon the theory and practice of historical geography and geographical history. He analyses the views of historians on the relationship of their discipline to geography, and geographers on the relationship of theirs to history. He considers in turn locational geographies and spatial histories, environmental geographies and histories, landscape geographies and histories, and regional geographies and histories. Seeking to bridge the 'Great Divide' between history and geography, Dr Baker identifies some basic principles relating historical geography not only to history but also to geography, a reworking which signifies a 'new beginning' for this scholarly hybrid.

Abstract

This book is the first major review of the history, theory and methodology of historical geography. Written by a leading authority in the field, it provides a fascinating and erudite analysis of this powerful and influential intellectual tradition.Using case studies and examples drawn from around the world and from numerous historical periods, Professor Butlin surveys the many different approaches to reconstructing the geographies of the past. Major sections are devoted to the sources of evidence and data used by historical geographers; the methods deployed in recreating the physical environments and human landscapes of the past; and the importance of geographical perspectives in considering the economic, social and political histories of power and control, rural change, industrial and urban development, and the changing patterns of trade, transport and communications.This comprehensive assessment brings together a wealth of material written in a lively and accessible style. For apporaching the subject for the first time it is an indispensable introduction and those with a greater knowledge of the field will find much that is new and stimulating in this account.

Abstract

"Depuis le XIXe siècle, les historiens français et allemands racontent une histoire fondamentalement différente de la transition entre le monde carolingien et les Xe-XIIe siècles : pour les premiers, l’apparition de principautés "territoriales" dans le monde post-carolingien est avant toute chose le signe de la désagrégation des institutions carolingiennes et représente une mutation fondamentale dans l’organisation des pouvoirs. Pour les seconds, il n’y a pas de véritable solution de continuité dans un système où le pouvoir a toujours reposé non sur la domination d’un territoire mais sur l’importance des liens interpersonnels entre le roi et l’aristocratie, et cela dès l’époque carolingienne. Le but de cet ouvrage est de montrer comment l’importance dévolue au caractère territorial du pouvoir – largement remis en question par la recherche actuelle – a influé sur la manière dont on raconte l’histoire de l’empire carolingien et des royaumes post-carolingiens à l’Est et à l’Ouest du Rhin, grâce à plusieurs mises au point historiographiques et à de nombreuses études de cas."--

Abstract

In Hittite Landscape and Geography Mark Weeden and Lee Ullmann have gathered 28 specialist authors to present an up-to-date account of research on the Geography of Late Bronze Age Anatolia (second half of the second millennium BC) using information both from cuneiform texts and from archaeological excavation and survey. The study of texts and archaeology require different specialisms. This is the first time an attempt has been made to present a co-ordinated monograph-length view of Hittite geography since 1959, and the first time that any work has tried to balance archaeological and textual data for the same geographical areas. The result is a foundational research tool which will put scholarship on Hittite Geography on a firm footing for the future.

Abstract

Encompassing a broad range of history -- from the Greek and Roman eras to the Salem witch trials and the Dust Bowl of the early 20th century, leading scholars from the United States, Canada, and Great Britain analyze history with the tools of GIS. Through the use of modern GIS technology the past is revealed in new ways, in re-creating Civil War battlefields, by bringing ancient landscapes back to life, and in re-examining long-held assumptions about historical events. Combining a deep appreciation of the strengths of traditional history with the technology of GIS, this book provides a new perspective for historical researchers and GIS experts.
