[Review Essay] Imagined Landscapes : Geovisualizing Australian Spatial Narratives, Charles Travis , single work essay

'In this fine piece of truly interdisciplinary work, geospatial technology is employed as a spatial hermeneutic tool to extirpate the mythical pasts haunting the Australian post-colonial imagination. Such fictions were invented from distant readings of the vast expanses of the continent’s regional sociocultural and physical geographies. The authors interrogate literary, historical and cinematic readings of these reified landscapes and as a result, cultural topography, spatial history and the study of fictional narratives are engaged with geo-visual technology in unique, innovative and insightful ways. The work’s conceptual foundation stone, it seems, is Paul Carter’s The Road to Botany Bay: An Essay in Spatial History  where the distinction between the ‘geographer’s space’ and ‘spatial history’ is clearly delineated.' (Introduction)
