Synopsis

This Open Access book explores the role and agency of stories and storytelling in understanding places and in revealing how places tell stories. It addresses themes of colonialism, more-than-human agency, environment, atmospheres, borders, dwelling, enchantment, haunting, care and hope, revealing the power of stories to make and unmake worlds. Contending with the ethical complexities of storytelling and the political implications of the stories that are shared and heard, it illuminates how some stories dominate ways of being and knowing while others are excluded and overlooked. Ultimately, this book demonstrates how stories can provide alternative, critical and progressive ways of knowing and encountering place.

Written by the Storying Geographies Collective.
