Geopoetics

a bibliometric analysis of international scientific production indexed in Scopus

Abstract

This study presents a bibliometric analysis of international scientific production on Geopoetics, an emerging field that explores the intersection between geosciences and poetic expression. Using data from Scopus database, we mapped the temporal distribution of publications, identified thematic associations,and characterized journals and countries with the greatest production related to the topic. Between 1996 and 2024, there was an average annual growth of 4%, with 157 documents published in 114 journals, reflecting a dispersion of production. The average age of the documents (4.62 years) indicates that the field is in a consolidation phase. In terms of authorship, 179 authors participated in the production, with a predominance of single-authored documents and limited international collaboration (1.91 %). Keyword analysis reveals the transdisciplinary nature of the field, associating Geopoetics with themes such as landscape, identity, ecopoetics and globalization. Poland stands out with the greatest production, followed by the United Kingdom and the United States. The research emphasizes the need for further research into Geopoetics in Brazil, where production is under-represented on an international basis. The study concludes that, despite the modest current production, Geopoetics has significant potential for growth, especially in a context of growing interest between geographical space, art and environmental issues.
