San Antonio, Texas, USA
Organisation: Society for the History of Discoveries

Frontiers and Borderlands of Exploration

Frontiers, where explorers, traders, and indigenous peoples encounter one another, expanding their geographic and socio-cultural understandings as well as political and economic relationships, is the theme of this year’s conference. The experience and the acquisition of knowledge between and by those crossing frontiers into unfamiliar territory as well as the transmission of this knowledge back to their homelands includes scholarly examinations of exploration, encounters, and resistance across colonial and exploratory frontiers globally.

Paris, France
Organisation: Commission d'histoire du Comité français de Cartographie
Comme chacun le sait, le cinéma, principal média de fiction développé au cours du XXe siècle, a été dès son origine tourné vers la représentation des espaces et des paysages les plus divers à la surface de la planète. La cartographie, sous toutes ses formes, a été mobilisée dans les multiples tentatives pour transformer les lieux et les espaces géographiques en un ensemble de supports et de foyers narratifs. La Journée d’études proposée par la Commission Histoire du Comité Français de Cartographie a pour ambition d’explorer quelques-unes des modalités de la présence de la cartographie dans l’histoire du cinéma de fiction ainsi que dans les opérations cinématographiques.
Venue: INHA – SALLE VASARI
