This book investigates the function of topographical names and
descriptions in a variety of narratives, poems, and philosophical
or theoretical texts, primarily from the 19th and 20th centuries,
but including also Plato and the Bible. Topics include the
initiating efficacy of speech acts, ethical responsibility,
political or legislative power, the translation of theory from one
topographical location to another, the way topographical
delineations can function as parable or allegory, and the relation
of personification to landscape.
