The recent emergence of geohumanities signals a cross‐disciplinary and a transdisciplinary engagement with themes of space and place. As a loosely structured field of inquiry, geohumanities combines a long‐standing humanities interest in the Earth, dating back to the Renaissance, with much more recent developments in the digital humanities and creative uses of geographic information science ( GIScience ). This entry explores these varying genealogies of the geohumanities and points toward future prospects for the new field.
