在这篇文章中，我讨论地点和身份之间的关系。我将注意力集中在两个具体主题上：首先，区域范围内的地点与身份之间的联系，其次，地图作为地点与身份之间关联的有力表示所发挥的作用。通过对威尔士语言能力地图的案例研究，我展示了地图如何倾向于加强威尔士语言、威尔士身份和地点之间的特定联系。然后，我继续概述替代地图如何帮助我们以不同的方式接近威尔士语言、“威尔士性”和地点之间的联系。最后，我最后指出这些主题在学术和政策背景下的重要性。
In this article I discuss the relationship between place and identity. I focus attention on two specific themes: firstly, the link between place and identity at the regional scale, and, secondly, the role played by maps as powerful representations of the association between place and identity. Using a case study of maps of Welsh-language ability, I show how maps have tended to reinforce a particular kind of association between the Welsh language, Welsh identity and place. I then proceed to outline how alternative maps can help us to approach the link between the Welsh language, ‘Welshness’ and place in different ways. Finally, I conclude by noting the significance of such themes in both academic and policy contexts.
