Would you like to receive a daily, random quote by email from my Little Box of Quotes? https://constantine.name/lboq A long long time ago I began collecting inspirational quotes and aphorisms. I kept them on the first version of my web site, where they were displayed randomly. But as time went on, I realized I wanted them where I would see them. Eventually I copied the fledgeling collection onto 3×5 cards and put them in a small box. As I find new ones, I add cards. Today, there are more than 1,000 quotes and the collection continues to grow. Hello, I'm Craig Constantine

Following episode 2, we go even more theoretical on Atlas Altera, focusing on the antiquated form of regional geography known as chorography. Other topics covered: the history of geography, territory and conquest, landscape and romanticist landscape paintings, possibilism and environmental determinism, Alexander von Humboldt, Carl Sauer, Vidal de la Blache, Friedrich Ratzel, Nazi geography and lebensraum, French imperialism, Wade Davis, and Jared Diamond. Tired of learning geography and history in an uninspired world? Atlas Altera is a creative exercise that repaints the world while going hardcore on real geography, anthropology, linguistics, and history.

The natural landscape is what was there before humans arrived. Carl Sauer's term.Toponym - 3:55, 6:38 from the Greek - literally, "place name"Globalization - 4:16, 10:52 interconnectivity between regions around the globe via international trade, outsourcing of manufacturing, and technologyPlacelessness - 5:00, 14:54 a condition where a place loses its distinctiveness, what makes it unique from another place, caused by globalization/pop culture influences/gentrification.Sequent occupancy - 5:32, 13:27 layering of civilization over time, remnants of past civilizations in a current cultural landscape.
