    History and philosophy of geography: Looking back and looking forward

    No full text
    This introduction to the special issue Reflections on Histories and Philosophies of Geography discusses the context and content of nineteen articles written to mark the fortieth anniversary of the History and Philosophy of Geography Research Group (HPGRG) of the Royal Geographical Society with the Institute of British Geographers (RGS-IBG). The group was founded in 1981, two years after the early career researchers who set up the group, Richard T. Harrison and David N. Livingstone, published jointly their first critical interventions in support of human geography’s paradigmatic shift away from positivism, based on an early form of social constructivist argumentation. We argue that the subsequent proliferation of epistemic pluralism, which is discussed in the contributions to this special issue and has characterised the activities organised by the HPGRG, exemplifies the considerable value of three historiographical practices: first, engaging with the history and philosophy of geography collectively in one research group; second, situating methodologies within the history and philosophy of geography; and third, critically interrogating the discipline’s evolving geographical knowledges, professional practices, and material cultures from different authorial positionalities

Cutts states that separate abstracts need to be made for invalid, Revolutionary War, and half-pay pensioners and that the names of said pensioners should be in alphabetical order. The third item is a note addressed to James Couper. This note includes calculations for the amounts due to various pensioners, such as J.L. Handy (115.46), F. Freeman (183.43),andWilliamDawson(183.43), and William Dawson (167.79). Also included is a note that Elijah Griffith died on January 17, 1820. The fourth item is a letter from J.L. Edwards, addressed to the President of the Branch Bank of the Farmers Bank, New Castle, Delaware (likely J.R. Black), dated February 29, 1820. Edwards states that Congress has not made any appropriation for paying military pensioners, so there may be a delay in making the usual remittance from the Treasury Department to the Farmers Bank
