Bodies and Structure 2.0: Deep Mapping Modern East Asian History
Files
Description
Dr. Peter Thilly, Assistant Professor of History, is one of 17 contributors to this project, funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities. From the multimedia project's final white paper: "Bodies and Structures 2.0 (http://bodiesandstructures.org) is a digital platform for researching and teaching spatial histories of modern East Asia and the worlds of which it has been a part. The project brings together the various engagements with critical human geography that are taking place in our fields – history, literature, and art history in general, and East Asian studies in particular. It consists of 17 individually authored modules, which examine a diverse range of topics, such as histories of disease and vaccination; narcotics trafficking; colonialism; migration; and urban life. These modules feature cutting-edge research on Japan (including Okinawa), Taiwan, China, Vietnam and Mongolia. (See Appendix for a complete list.) On top of this, the site uses tags, annotations, links, and visualizations to connect and cut across the modules, giving contributors and users the opportunity to think comparatively about space, place and power."
