  The international conference "Nature(s)" which will be held on June 6-8th, 2013 and will coincide with other cultural and scientific events in Nantes as a "European Green Capital", will question what is really at stake when human beings consciously deal with nature and natural spaces, especially in an urban context. Over the centuries, how have writers, artists, painters or landscape planners been grappling with nature in a rapidly growing urban world, and how did they question the way in which human beings lived but also dreamt their future?
