Geography with John Berger: Questions of Space and Practice
Editat de Ben Garlick, Dubravka Sekulic Contribuţii de Dr. Leila Dawney, Dr. Joe Gerlach, Dr. Thomas Jellis, Dr. Agata Lulkowska, Tom Overtonen Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 sep 2026
The contributors connect Berger's work to cultural geography, including through a photo essay that articulates personal encounters with place, as well as discussion of his notion of "confabulation" and what it offers for writing cultural geographies. Each chapter delves into themes like Berger's interest in questions of representation, migration, ethics and the limits of political action.
Garlick and Sekulic underline Berger's enduring relevance and resonance for contemporary academic, conceptual and worldly developments. In doing so, contributors - hailing from both within and beyond the 'discipline' of geography - emphasise and celebrate the value of cross-disciplinary dialogue, collaboration, and experimentation that crosses boundaries, begets conversations, and offers novel insights into our lived worlds and their processes.

Recenzii
This sensitive and insightful companion to the work of John Berger brings his lifelong engagement with the experience of place into contact with contemporary theoretical debates. If geography is a field that 'multiplies our views onto the world', then this collection generously and often unexpectedly multiplies our understanding of Berger's work.
