Abstract
ABSTRACT Twenty-four cartographers. Twenty-four theme park landscape designers. Twenty-four theoreticians-in-training. Twenty-four dragon chasers. Twenty-four undergraduate students ready to slay. Not the dragons – theory. This is an article about my attempt at constructing an interdisciplinary theory and methods course. It is a course about theme parks. These theme parks are situated on a map. This map will show you where some dragons are. Curious? Sceptical? Confused? None of these, but reading this article fits into your schedule? Then, come on … a quest awaits us!
期刊介绍:
This acclaimed journal allows historians in a broad range of specialities to experiment with new ways of presenting and interpreting history. Rethinking History challenges the accepted ways of doing history and rethinks the traditional paradigms, providing a unique forum in which practitioners and theorists can debate and expand the boundaries of the discipline.
