A History of Place in the Digital Age explores the history and impact of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and related digital mapping technologies in humanities research. Providing a historical and methodological discussion of place in the most important primary materials which make up the human record, including text and artefacts, the book explains how these materials frame, form and communicate location in the age of the internet. This leads in to a discussion of how the World Wide Web distorts and skews place, amplifying some voices and reducing others.

Drawing on several connected case studies from the early modern period to the present day, the spatial writings of early modern antiquarians are explored, as are the roots of approaches to place in archaeology and philosophy. This forms the basis for a review of place online, through the complex history of the invention of the internet, in to the age of the interactive web and social media. By doing so, the book explores the key themes of spatial power and representation which these technologies frame.

A History of Place in the Digital Age will be of interest to scholars, students and practitioners in a variety of humanities disciplines with an interest in understanding how technology can help them undertake research on spatial themes. It will be of interest as primary work to historians of technology, media and communications.

Arvustused

"This lucid synthesis impresses for its precision as much as for its integrative reach. Interweaving discussions of history, text, space, technology, power, media, and most eloquently, the deep map, it is a signal contribution to the burgeoning field of spatial humanities. This is a model interdisciplinary venture, inspiring a view of the humanities as a crucible of philosophical and practical innovation and of humanities scholarship as a lavish and thrilling pursuit." - Professor John Corrigan, Florida State University, USA.

"It...contains much that may be of value for readers of this journal." - Peter Webster, Internet Histories

"It's the best summary of the past ten years of digital place-based research I have seen, and I appreciated the accessible nature of the writing...a really valuable read". - Tom Harper, Curator of Antiquarian Mapping, The British Library

Stuart Dunn is Senior Lecturer in Digital Humanities at King's College London, UK, where he has worked since 2006. He holds a PhD in Aegean Bronze Age Archaeology from the University of Durham, UK, and has interests in the history of cartography, crowdsourcing in the humanities (with a special emphasis on Volunteered Geographic Information, or VGI), and the Spatial Humanities. Most recently he has worked on the heritage of Cyprus and spatial approaches to the study of art history. His work has been funded by the AHRC, the A. G. Leventis Foundation and the Getty Foundation; and as well as being an active researcher, Dunn has developed innovative teaching modules in GIS and the humanities in KCLs MA programmes. In 2017, he co-authored the first major book-length study of academic crowdsourcing in the humanities. He has also been a Visiting Scholar in Stanford University's Center for Spatial and Textual Analysis's Spatial History project since 2014 (USA).
