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.
