Historical geography is an active, theoretically-informed and
vibrant field of study within modern geography, with strong
interdisciplinary connections with the humanities and the social
sciences. The SAGE Handbook of Historical Geography provides an
international and in-depth overview of the field with chapters that
examine the history, present condition and future significance of
historical geography in relation to recent developments and current
research. The Handbook is in two volumes, divided across nine
parts. Volume One includes commentaries on the history and
geography of historical geography, and reviews how historical
geographers have considered the appropriation, management and
representation of landscape, the changing geographies of property,
land, money and financial capital, and the demographic, medical and
political analysis of the world's growing and mobile population.
Volume Two shows how historical geographers have made significant
contributions to geopolitical debates about the relationships
between nation-states and empires, to environmental challenges
posed by human interaction with the natural world, to studies of
the cultural, intellectual and political implications of modern
science and technology, and to investigations of communicative
action, artefacts, performances and representations. The final part
reviews the methodological and ethical challenges of historical
geography as a publicly engaged research practice. Part 1:
