The long superficial engagement of literary scholars with the cartographic lexicon (under the label of literary ‘spatial turn’) has led to a need for a ‘recartographization’ of the field. This tendency, however, still remains primarily embedded within analytical (‘cartography of literature’) or critical (‘critical literary cartography’) approaches, and fails to engage the recent development of post-representational rethinking of maps. Literary criticism, with its creative use of mapping words, and, above all, literary texts, with their involvement of practising maps, should be reconsidered as relevant sources for cartographic theorization and mapping research.read more

An Introduction to Critical Cartography
Jeremy W. Crampton,John Krygier +1 more
TL;DR: Critical cartography as discussed by the authors challenges academic cartography by linking geographic knowledge with power, and thus is political, and argues that contemporary critical cartography can only be understood in the historical context of the development of the cartographic discipline more generally.
