Spatial Representation of the Frontier as one of the Components of Historical Geography

The article considers the spatial representation of the frontier as one of the components of historical geography. The purpose of the study is to determine the affiliation of the concept of ‘frontier’ to the problem field of historical geography on the basis of scientific and cartographic studies of historians in the context of the formation of Ukrainian territories. The research methodology is based on the principles of historicism, systematicity, and scientificity. The following general historical methods are used: historiographical analysis, terminological analysis, typological, comparative, and cartographic. The study found that the concept of the frontier as a border or border strip can be considered in the context of the problems of historical geography, and the Ukrainian lands are at the intersection of different border contact zones.
