Tania Rossetto is Assistant Professor of Cultural Geography at the University of Padova (Italy). Her research interests include the relationship between map studies and visual studies, the embodiment of maps, the ethnography of mapping practices, the portrayal of maps, cartography and racial/ethnic otherness, and the use of visual ways to display cartographic research. She has also worked on the linkage between cartographic theory and literary studies, and in particular on literary geovisuality. On these subjects she has published in journals such as Progress in Human Geography, Social & Cultural Geography, Environment and Planning D: Society and Space and Cartographica.
