Download or read book Dissertating Geography written by Mette Bruinsma and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-10-02 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the history of geography (1950-2020) from a bottom-up perspective. Disciplinary histories often emphasise the pronouncements of established academics, yet student-geographers make up the majority of the overall ‘geographical community’ at any one time. Exploring these efforts of geography students over the past 70 years places the known history of the discipline in a new perspective. A disciplinary history ‘from below’ recognises and acknowledges student dissertations and advances three core propositions: first, they are produced by an overlooked but nonetheless central grouping in the geographical community; second, the rich archival collection of dissertations specifically consulted here contains many excellent geographical knowledge productions that have remained barely read until now; and third, there is a wish to encourage others to explore similar collections of student knowledge productions held elsewhere. This book will be an important resource for scholars and postgraduate students in Geography, Education, and the History and Theory of Geography.

Download or read book A Historical Geography of Christopher Columbus s First Voyage and his Interactions with Indigenous Peoples of the Caribbean written by Al M. Rocca and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-05-02 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a unique account of Christopher Columbus’s first voyage, the most consequential voyage in world history. It provides a detailed day-by-day account of the explorer’s travels and activities, richly illustrated with thematic maps. This work expands our understanding of Columbus’s first voyage by mapping his sea and land experiences, offering both a historical and geographical exploration of his first voyage. Traveling chronologically through events, the reader builds a spatial insight into Columbus’s perspectives that confused and confirmed his pre-existing notions of Asia and the Indies, driving him onward in search of new geographic evidence. Drawing from a diverse range of primary and secondary historical resources, this book is beautifully adorned with illustrations that facilitate an in-depth exploration of the connections between the places Columbus encountered and his subsequent social interactions with Indigenous people. This methodology allows the reader to better understand Columbus’s actions as he analyzes new geographic realities with pre-existing notions of the “Indies.” Attention is given to Columbian primary sources which analyze how those materials have been used to create a narrative by historians. Readers will learn about the social and political structures of the Lucayan, Taíno, and Carib peoples, achieving a deeper understanding of those pre-Columbian cultures at the time of contact. The book will appeal to students and researchers in the disciplines of history, geography, and anthropology, and the general reader interested in Colombus.

Health of the individual is closely related to the various geographical factors. Geographical factors are more influencing and they determine the health of individual and the community. Health is considered as a major determinant of happiness. The link between health and development is very close. Health can be considered as a factor of development. In the two decades preceding, the start of the new millennium, geography as a discipline witnessed an innovative revolution that completely reorganized the traditional boundaries of this field. Building upon its established strengths and embracing the novel ideas and perspectives brought about by the technological boom of the late 1980, geography has expanded into a more robust, recognized, marketable, unified and diversified scientific discipline (Gaile & willmott, 2003).
