He was a public intellectual and academic scholar, who worked with scholars and practitioners as well as within public fora. His contribution can only be fully grasped in the light of his research and his practical and political engagement with islands, particularly Caribbean islands as a geographer, historian, and scholarly activist. This engagement with material islands was also linked to his more abstract concern with the archipelagic quality of knowledge as it straddles the humanities and natural sciences. Of importance was furthermore his felt need to engage actively in both public and scholarly debates deriving from his family’s background in law, public service, and social activism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe integrated chapters in this book, authored by prominent scholars, together illuminate the many facets of Lowenthal’s biography and written works.
