Tim Robinson Biografía y Hechos
Tim Robinson (Yorkshire, 1935 - Londres, 3 de abril de 2020)[1] fue un escritor y cartógrafo inglés. Primeros años y educación Nacido en Yorkshire,[2], estudió matemáticas en la Universidad de Cambridge.[3] Carrera Después de una carrera como artista visual en Estambul, Viena y Londres, se estableció en las Islas Aran, frente a la costa del condado de Galway, y comenzó un estudio detallado del paisaje de la Región Oeste, Irlanda. Ganó dos Irish Book Awards por sus libros sobre Connemara. Robinson produjo mapas de las islas Aran, Connemara y Burren en el condado de Clare; estos fueron publicados por Folding Landscapes, la impronta que él y su esposa Máiréad recorrieron desde su base de Roundstone. Su estudio de dos volúmenes de las Islas Aran, Stones of Aran, es un compendio muy apreciado de la tradición topográfica y cultural, descrito por Michael Viney como "Una de las obras literarias más originales, reveladoras y estimulantes jamás producidas en Irlanda".[4] Stones of Aran: Pilgrimage sigue la forma de una exploración costera, mientras que Stones of Aran: Labyrinth explora el interior. Su trabajo más reciente fue la publicación de un estudio de tres volúmenes de Connemara llamado Listening to the Wind, A Little Gaelic Kingdom y The Last Pool of Darkness. Fue miembro de la organización artística irlandesa Aosdána.[5] Tim Robinson ganó dos premios irlandeses del libro: el libro del año 2007 de no ficción irlandés Argosy para Connemara: Listening the Wind y el Mejor Libro del Año 2011 de Servicios Educativos Internacionales de Irlanda para Connemara: A Little Gaelic Kingdom.
