Lorraine and its writers - literary creation and territories
Nous assistons depuis une vingtaine d’années à des approches critiques croisées émanant de champs disciplinaires variés (géographie, littérature, sociologie, muséologie…) axées sur la notion d’espace. Les études littéraires ont par exemple emprunté à la géographie des concepts comme le territoire, le paysage par le biais des représentations littéraires de l’espace et des médiations possibles entre espaces réels et espaces perçus, construits, imaginés par les écrivains.

Space for theory - Géopoint 2016
Géopoint 2016
Qu’est-ce qu’une théorie de l'espace ? A-t-on besoin de théorie pour le décrire, l’expliquer, le comprendre, le transformer ? Sur le principe, ces questions semblent appeler une réponse consensuelle, mais, en pratique, ce n’est pas si simple. D’abord, nombre de chercheurs continuent de se détourner de la construction de concepts et d’énoncés théoriques. Ensuite, la contribution de la recherche sur l’espace à l’ensemble des théories du monde social reste souvent implicite, insuffisamment diffusée et discutée, alors même que le « tournant géographique » a progressivement conduit l’ensemble des sciences sociales à prendre l’espace au sérieux.

Conference, symposium - Representation
Digital Humanities 2016 pre-conference Workshop
The 1st edition of the workshop “A place for places” will hold in conjunction with the “2016 Digital Humanities conference” in Kraków, Poland. The present workshop aims to investigate the latest developments of geo-historical gazetteers and their impact in natural language processing and digital humanities studies. In particular the workshop will deal with crucial problems concerning the geo-spatial models of representation for ancient places, and the management of temporal information for geographic features in general. Current projects concerning the publication of geo-historical data as Linked Open Data, as well as their exploitation for annotating and enriching texts will also be discussed, alongside with more theoretical issues on vocabularies and ontologies.

Grenoble
Conference, symposium - Geography
The first two CIST conferences – Founding Territorial Sciences, in 2011, and Frontiers and Boundaries of Territorial Sciences, in 2014– addressed a number of theoretical and practical issues in the territorial sciences. This third edition, to be held in 2016 in Cité de territoires (Grenoble, France), will continue this tradition by examining the expectations of citizens, inhabitants, and public and private bodies with respect to territories. It will offer, in a twofold event, 80 acadelic presentations parallel to debates and discussions with stakeholders involved in territories.
