Many but not all the contributions in this volume originated as presentations at the Critical Topography conference in 2015. Bordo and Fitzpatrick coin the term critical topography to describe how thought and symbolic forms invent place through text and image. International in scope, Canadian in spirit, and grounded in singular sites, Place Matters presents critical topography as an approach to analyze, interpret, and reflect on place.
