Fanny Copeland and the geographical imagination
No full textRaised in Scotland, married and divorced in the English south, an adopted Slovene, Fanny Copeland (1872 – 1970) occupied the intersection of a number of complex spatial and temporal conjunctures. A Slavophile, she played a part in the formation of what subsequently became the Kingdom of Yugoslavia that emerged from the First World War. Living in Ljubljana, she facilitated the first ‘foreign visit’ (in 1932) of the newly formed Le Play Society (a precursor of the Institute of British Geographers) and guided its studies of Solčava (a then ‘remote’ Alpine valley system) which, led by Dudley Stamp and commended by Halford Mackinder, were subsequently hailed as a model for regional studies elsewhere. Arrested by the Gestapo and interned in Italy during the Second World War, she eventually returned to a socialist Yugoslavia, a celebrated figure. An accomplished musician, linguist, and mountaineer, she became an authority on (and populist for) the Julian Alps and was instrumental in the establishment of the Triglav National Park. Copeland’s role as participant observer (and protagonist) enriches our understanding of the particularities of her time and place and illuminates some inter-war relationships within G/geography, inside and outside the academy, suggesting their relative autonomy in the production of geographical knowledge

Distribution. Central African Republic, Kenya, South Africa, Uganda. Remarks. There is only a single morphological difference between A. semajanna and A. whartoni Olmi 2011: in A. semajanna, the propodeal declivity does not have longitudinal keels; A. whartoni has two longitudinal keels or only one keel on the left. It is possible that the two species are conspecific.Published as part of Olmi, Massimo, Copeland, Robert S. & Noort, Simon Van, 2019, Dryinidae of the Afrotropical region (Hymenoptera, Chrysidoidea), pp. 1-619 in Zootaxa 4630 (1) on pages 192-193, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4630.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/333663
