Professor Kenneth Cumberland's presidential address at the first New Zealand geography conference in 1955 considered the achievements, aims and objectives of the discipline, which he positioned as a chorological science. This view of geography posed difficulties for the scope of historical geography, one of Cumberland's main areas of research. He addressed this problem in a second conference presentation, which has remained unpublished. This unpublished hitherto “lost manuscript” has been located and is examined with an eye to Cumberland's role as a disciplinary gatekeeper and boundary rider of New Zealand geography in the 1950s.

肯尼斯·坎伯兰（Kenneth Cumberland）在1955年的第一届新西兰地理会议上谈历史地理

肯尼思·坎伯兰德（Kenneth Cumberland）教授在1955年举行的第一届新西兰地理会议上的主席致辞中考虑了该学科的成就，宗旨和目标，并将其定位为一门制冰科学。这种地理观点给坎伯兰郡主要研究领域之一的历史地理学领域带来了困难。他在第二次会议介绍中解决了这个问题，但尚未发表。找到并检查了这本迄今尚未出版的“失落的手稿”，并考察了坎伯兰德在1950年代作为新西兰地理学科的守门员和边界骑手的角色。
