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

L’évolution de la géographie reflète les grands débats intellectuels qui animent la scène occidentale ; elle répond également à la demande sociale, à celle des gouvernants en particulier : elle prospère là où se développent des bureaucraties, lorsqu’un empire s’étend ou lorsque la découverte d’un monde franchit une étape. L’histoire de la géographie ne s’éclaire vraiment que lorsqu’on prend en compte à la fois le contexte intellectuel et l’arrière-plan politique et administratif qui caractérisent chaque époque.

Abstract

"Torn between the competing forces of scholarship as a profession and scholarship as a calling - between Babel and the Ivory Tower - the modern academic faces a dilemma: should she or he try to preserve the soul of higher education by cultivating the Muse of personal knowledge, or renounce the Muse and imitate a technician?" "Having come to the end of his own scholarly career, W. David Shaw felt out of place in the technological realm academia has become - where scholars increasingly model their work on that of scientists rather than that of the classical thinkers of the past, and where original ideas often only alienate scholars, rather than enrich them. Thus, Babel and the Ivory Tower is as much a eulogy as an elegy."--BOOK JACKET.
