The authors investigate the myriad ways that people conceive of—and thereby describe—the world around them, studying the impact these ideas have on their identities, and highlighting the tension between conflicting ontologies of space. It is a timely and invaluable new resource for researchers and students in linguistics, geography, anthropology and communication. Greg Niedt completed a PhD in Communication, Culture, and Media at Drexel University, and is currently a lecturer in the Department of Liberal Arts at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia, PA. Their research is focused on the visibility of minority Discourses in the physical landscape, especially those related to ethnolinguistic and/or queer communities in multicultural cities
