https://samgrinsell.hcommons.org/2025/12/02/history-as-connection/ History as connection - first in a series of posts in which I think about how history connects us to the real.

My bottom line, building on Hobsbawm, Ranger and Anderson, is: #ethnicity, as an imagined community, is a construct, an invented tradition that ends up being, to quote myself, an “invented nature”

Returning here to share an article I recently published in Urban History. I argue for a deeper, more playful engagement between urban historians and the environmental humanities if we are to address the ecological crises of our times. 'Urban history as urgent work, an argument for disciplinary promiscuity' https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/urban-history/article/urban-history-as-urgent-work-an-argument-for-disciplinary-promiscuity/5F09F423B1EAB5C89F3F1BC46D6DCBD4 #environment #EnvHum #Anthropocene #UrbanHistory #UrbanGeography #History #OpenAccess

for my seminar "Cultures of the Environment" I am working towards student spending a session mapping an #environment of their choice, as a way to kickstart discussion about selective #representation and #mapping as #environing. Does anybody have suggestions for a reading to assign to students ahead of the meeting (ca. 20-25 pp.)? I have some material already, e.g. a 2017 #DeepMapping booklet by Bloom and Sacramento (which is however too long as an intro reading) and some work by and about Denis Wood (which is problematic, as I am afraid that introducing his conviction into class, as necessary, will lead the discussion way astray). I'd appreciate any suggestions.
