This volume of Geographers Biobibliographical Studies brings together
essays on four Frenchmen, a Czech, and three Englishmen. The lives of
our subjects extend from the late Enlightenment and the era of 'polite
science' in Regency Britain to the first decade of the 21st century.
These geographers and their studies are linked not only in their
regional expertise - from Brazil, French Indo-China to Scandinavia and
South Africa - but also by their commitment to the development of
geography as a science and as a discipline. Here, in different
settings and at different times, we can see how the lived experience
of geographers' lives shaped the contours of the subject.
