William Bunge’s pioneering approach to
‘expeditionary geography’ and his
book ‘Fitzgerald- geography of a revolution’ have been a major source of inspiration for radical cartographers, including the LivingMaps Network. Each
year LivingMaps is organising a public
lecture to celebrate Bunge’s achievements by inviting someone who has
made an outstanding contribution to
the development of this field.
For the inaugural lecture we have
invited Hugh Brody, a pioneer of ethno-cartography , to reflect on his field work amongst the Inuit
and to draw out some of the
political and personal implications of his approach to indigenous mapping. There
will be a small exhibition of cultural maps to accompany the lecture . Our
discussant , Michael Bravo,is also a
distinguished contributor to this field ,a senior lecturer at the Scott Polar
Institute and author of The Pan Inuit Trails Atlas.
