cultural geography
Definition
- Cultural geography is a major subfield of human geography focusing on the spatial expression, representation, and negotiation of the experience of being in the world. Because the definition of culture itself is controversial and because the historical trajectory of cultural geography varies both by place and by approach, cultural geography contains within it a variety of perspectives. Contemporary cultural geography experiences a continuity of enduring themes and the addition of new topics. [Encyclopedia of Geography]
