Henri Lefebvre’s La Production de l’Espace and Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s Phenomenology of Perception discuss the profound influence which the production of space has on our lives. Peter Turchi’s Maps of the Imagination: The Writer as Cartographer, highlights the subjectivity of mental processes, suggesting that mental maps are informed by perception, ignorance, and a fragmented sense of place. Points of View examines the selectivity of the map-maker, presenting map-like landscapes that are interested in memory, power, and the interpretation of space.
