relational complexity of urban and rural landscapes in space and in time
The development of historical geographical information
systems (HGIS) and other methods from the digital humanities have revolutionised
historical research on cultural landscapes. Additionally, the opening up of increasingly diverse collections of source material, often incomplete and difficult to interpret, has led to methodologically innovative experiments. One of today’s major challenges,
however, concerns the concepts and tools to be deployed for mapping processes
of transformation—that is, interpreting and imagining the relational complexity
of urban and rural landscapes, both in space and in time, at micro- and macro-scale.
Mapping Landscapes in Transformation gathers experts from
different disciplines, active in the fields of historical geography, urban and
landscape history, archaeology and heritage conservation. They are specialised in a wide
variety of space-time contexts, including regions within Europe, Asia, and the
Americas, and periods from antiquity to the 21st century.
