Thanks to all of you who took the time to answer 
my question about geographers using Bakhtin. 
Much appreciated!

Here's a summary of the suggestions.

Folch-Serra M, 1990, "Place, voice, space: 
Mikhail Bakhtin's dialogical landscape"
Environment and Planning D: Society and Space 8(3) 255 - 274
[The most common suggestion!]

Holloway, J. and Kneale, J. "Bakhtin's Geographies" in Crang, M. and Thrift, N.
2000. Thinking Space. Routledge
Particularly, p. 82-83.

Crang, M. "Ryththms of the city: temporalised space and motion" in May J. and
Thrift, N. 2001. Timespace. Routledge.
Particularly,  p. 188-192.

Hemmingway, E.L. (2004) 'The silent heart of 
news' Space & Culture 7(4) 409-426  ... which 
uses the notion of chronotope to study the 
spatiality of television newsrooms. Hemmingway is 
not a geographer - actually based in 
communications.

Kathleen Stuart's book Space on the Side of the 
Road mentions it quite a bit although i think 
she's in anthropology rather than geography.


This paper makes good use of chronotope and 
dialogism; it's forthcoming - in fact might even 
be out: Kathleen O’Reilly, '‘‘Where the Knots of 
Narrative Are Tied and Untied’’: The Dialogic 
Production of Gendered Development Spaces in 
North India', Annals of the Association of 
American Geographers. This paper draws on the 
chronotope though not as explicitly as it might: 
Brosseau, M. (1995). The city in textual form: 
Manhattan Transfer’s New York. Ecumene (now 
Cultural Geographies) 2, 89-114. Holloway, 
Julian, and Kneale, James (2000). 'Mikhail 
Bakhtin: Dialogics of Space' , in Crang, M., and 
Thrift, N., (eds.), Thinking 
Space, London: Routledge, 71-88. Holloway, 
Julian, and Kneale, James (forthcoming) 
'Dialogism (after Bakhtin)', in Kitchin and 
Thrift (eds), Encyclopedia of Human Geography, 
Elsevier Holloway, J. (2003). Spiritual 
embodiment and sacred rural landscapes. In Cloke, 
P. (ed) Country Visions, pp. 158-175. Harlow: 
Prentice Hall. Kneale, J. (2006). From beyond: H. 
P. Lovecraft and the place of horror. Cultural 
Geographies 13, 106-126.
