Appalachia in Regional Context
Place Matters
Contributions by Barbara Ellen Smith, John Pickles, John Gaventa, Elizabeth Engelhardt, Carol A. Mason, Mary L. Gray, bell hooks, Rich Kirby, John Haywood, Ron Pen, Gina Caison, Kent C. Ryden, David A. Davis, Emily Satterwhite, Laura Hernandez-Ehrisman and Philip Joseph
In addition to theoretical explorations of place, some of the case studies examine foodways, depictions of gendered and racialized Appalachian identity in popular culture, the experiences of rural LGBTQ youth, and the pitfalls and promises of teaching regional studies. Drawing on ideas from cultural anthropology, sociology, and a variety of other fields, and interleaved with poems by bell hooks, this volume furthers the examination of new perspectives on one of America's most compelling and misunderstood regions.
About the Authors
Reviews
"Appalachia in Regional Context: Place Matters highlights tensions within the field of Appalachian studies, particularly tensions rooted in the diverse political, economic, and epistemological paradigms. . . Gathering previous talks, panels, and parts of larger projects, Billings and Kingsolver weave them together in a way that urges the reader to make new connections between familiar yet often distant texts."—Journal of Southern History
"This book provides material to refocus attention on the importance of the places we occupy, share, love, visit, and study."—The Pennsylvania Geographer
"What's so valuable about this book is that it gathers so many different ideas and approaches in one volume, thereby making them more easily accessible to audiences in Appalachian studies as well as other disciplines."—Stephen L. Fisher, coeditor of Transforming Places: Lessons from Appalachia
"There is much to like in this stimulating volume; in many ways it is another significant example of Appalachian studies continuing to explore new boundaries, terrain, and perspectives. It's a solid example of the strength of regionalist inquiry today."—Chad Berry, author of Southern Migrants, Northern Exiles
