Hi Eugene,
I employed Bakhtin's 'chronotope' (and Buttimer's translation of lebenswelt) in my PhD thesis 'Lifeworlds: Literary Geographies in 1930s Ireland (2006) A copy can be found in Trinity College Dublin's library, in addition to the Holloway and Kneale article mentioned by David and (more accessible than my thesis) are the following titles:
Folch-Serra, M. 'Place, voice, space: Mikhail Bakhtin's dialogical landscape.' Environment and Planning D: Society and Space , 8 (1990) p. 258.
Leersson, J. 'The Western Mirage: On Celtic Chronotope in the European Imagination,' in (ed.) Timothy Collins, Decoding the Landscape, (Galway: Centre for Landscape Studies, 1994) pp. 1-11.
Sheeran, P. 'The Road, The House, and the Grave: A Poetics of Galway Space, 1900-1970,' in (eds.) Gerald Moran, Raymond Gillespie and William Nolan, Galway History & Society Interdisciplinary Essays on the History of an Irish County (Dublin: Geography Publications, 1996)
Brousseau, M. 'The City in Textual Form: Manhattan Transfer's New York,' Ecumene, 2.1 (1995) pp. 89-114.

Subject: Geographical work on Bakhtin's notion of 'chronotope'?
Dear list members,
A colleague of mine here at SFU who works in cultural studies and
communications asked me if any geographers have engaged with
Bakhtin's notion of 'chronotope.' I haven't been able to help her,
but I wondered if anyone could give me some pointers? Are there
geographical works out there on the concept, or employing it in a
study, or engaging in a critique of it?
Thanks,
Eugene
