Writing and reading human geography
This article responds to renewed interest in questions of genre and style as they relate to the writing practice of human geographers in three ways: by providing an overview of the historical foundations of this interest; by reconsidering the definition of geographical writing; and by drawing attention to the value of specifically geographical reading practices. It argues that an approach to academic geography and literary texts able to read them…
Literary geography
This paper explores some of the ways in which analytical strategies developed within narrative theory might be combined with recent developments in literary geography in the study of setting and narrative space. It suggests that despite narrative theory's urge toward categorization and its associated tendency to conceive of space as relatively stable and fixed, the technical vocabulary developed within the discipline has much to offer the literar…

This guide accompanies the following article: Sheila Hones, Text as it happens – literary geography, Geography Compass 3 (2009): pp 1‐6. 10.1111/j.1749‐8198.2009.00291.x 1. Author’s Introduction One of the major challenges to the development of literary geography as a coherent geographical field has been the extent to which work attempting to link literary texts and literary studies with geographical interests and spatial theory has varied accord…
Literary geography and the short story
This article deals with setting and narrative style in the literary geography of short fiction. In its first section it reviews four commentaries on geographies of the short story. In its second section it makes a close reading of Alice Walker's one-page story 'Petunias' in which it argues that for the story to happen readers must contribute to the event not only a high level of participatory engagement but also a willingness to exercise a partic…
Text as It Happens
This article reviews the current situation in geographical work with fiction in the context of an explicitly spatial view of the writing-reading nexus as a contextualized and always emerging geographical event. It argues that this way of conceptualizing the text events of both narrative fiction and academic knowledge production provides a way of understanding and dealing with incompatible literary interpretations and also with irreconcilable appr…
Location, Context, and Perspective in American Studies
This paper is a case-study analysis of the geography of practice as it functions in American studies. Focusing on the Japanese Association for American Studies fortieth anniversary symposium, 'American Studies in Trans-Pacific Perspective', it shows how the event affords two complementary ways of thinking about the geography of scholarly identity, topics, and practices in American studies, one emphasizing positionality and physical location, the …
Muji, Materiality, and Mundane Geographies
This paper is based on the premise that mundanity is not so much a quality inherent in an object or event as an appearance or affordance generated at the intersection of object, subject, and location. Assuming that a single object will appear banal in one context and different in another, we focus our attention on cases in which a single object is encountered as both banal and different-visible and invisible at the same time, marked out by its ab…
Geographies of American Studies
A paradoxically conservative aspect of recent moves to "international-ize" the practice of American studies has been the way in which this turn toward the international has taken the national for granted. At the very moment that Americanists have been striving to disentangle disciplinary subject matter from the constraints of a static and border-oriented view of world space, calls to internationalize disciplinary practice have been reifying natio…
Towards a critical geography of American Studies
Our argument in this article is based on the premise that 'geography' refers not simply to location within a spatial frame but also to geographical knowledge as it is variously produced, taken for granted, contested, and negotiated. As taken-for-granted geographical knowledge is central to the discipline of American Studies not only in the framing of its subject matter but also in the spatialization of its disciplinary practices, we propose the d…
