Geographers: Biobibliographical Studies, Volume 43: Geographers
Editat de Dr Elizabeth Baigent, Dr André Reyes Novaesen Limba Engleză Hardback – 10 dec 2026
From the heiress Louise Arner Boyd, who drained her inheritance to fund Arctic expeditions, to David Stoddart who saw geography as a direct descendant of the scientific explorers of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and Gerd Enequist, who struggled for human geography to be taken as seriously as physical geography, and for women to be taken as seriously as men, this volume lays out the major contribution these geographers made to their subject.
With two chapters focusing on women who carved out careers in the face of opposition, and a guest editorial by Felix Driver who considers the value of biography as a method for recapturing geography's history, this volume brings a welcome new perspective on the serial's core method and purpose.

With a regional focus on South American geographers and their works, the new edition of Geographers: Biobibliographical Studies literally puts geographical traditions and trajectories from the Global South on the map of geography's history. The five biographies of the volume provide insightful accounts on academic landscapes off the beaten track and are a great starting point to learn more about geography beyond Europe and North America.
In this volume, GBS travels South - to Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Salvador and Recife. The careers of four geographers and one historian are situated in their local, national and international contexts. These biographies highlight the political agency of these remarkable authors as well as the intellectual and institutional significance of their work.
By focusing on geographers from the Global South, GBS volume 40 contribute to a better understanding of the history of geography, enlarging and enriching its perspectives. The biographical memoirs presented cover five relevant authors that now may become known for an international audience.
