Time-space relationships are central to human geography. This book seeks to reanimate time-space, by considering the links between lived experience, various temporalities and particular places in terms of compounded and contested rhythms. Time-space rhythms emphasize the practical, symbolic, everyday and embodied qualities in the experience and making of our geographical environment. Bringing together a team of renowned geographers who have been exploring such ideas over the past decades, this book provides a unique and varied set of geographical approximations to the reanimation of place, nature and landscape, revealing a complex, disputed world of politics, sensory experiences and representations of space-time. Including case studies from Europe and North America, the book addresses some important issues, ranging from the symbolic orchestrations of landscape to deeply personal memories of particular natural rhythms.

’Through the idea of ’’rhythm’’, Anne Buttimer provided a tool for associating space and time, landscape and history : places were reanimated, as exemplified by the 13 cases introduced by Tom Mels.’ Professor Paul Claval, Université de Paris, Sorbonne, France ’...in addition to being a welcome contribution to wider geographical engagements with temporality, for this reader the book served as [a] useful reminder of intellectual traditions that have sometimes been under-acknowledged within culturally inflected human geography...’ Cultural Geographies ’...[offers] an array of both historical and contemporary case studies that work in concert and yet at the same time offer great enough diversity that the individual studies may stand alone as well...Reanimating Places provides ample evidence that renewed interest in time-space rhythms will provide new insight into cultural geographers’ engagement with place.’ Journal of Cultural Geography
