The Travel: Space of Knowledge and Cultural Communication/Le voyage :
espace de la connaissance et de la communication culturelle 09. 06. 2006

Travel studies have recently gained an important place among academic
fields of research, owing to its inter- and trans-disciplinary
character. Our seminary invites you to approach the subject of travel
from the perspectives of history, literature, geography, imagology,
cartography, anthropology, sociology, political sciences and other
related domains of research. The history of civilization is in a great
measure both a history of travels, mobilities, migrations, including
their integration in new topographies (journeys, exodus, nomadism,
pilgrimage, emigration, exploration, dislocations of the labour force
etc.), and the reading or writing of these experiences (travel
literature and cartography, documents, maps, illustrations, etc.).
Conceived in a broad sense, the idea of travel can also refer to the
circulation and reception of books, documents, ideas, cultural
influences, translations etc. Other themes of discussion: histories of
travel and travel of histories, spaces of intercultural and
international communication/conflicts of interests, maps of travel and
travel of maps, travel – knowledge –power, discourses of identities
and/or difference, travel accounts: documents and/or literature, poetics
of the exile.

/Les études viatiques ont acquis récemment une place importante parmi
autres disciplines académiques grâce au caractère inter- et
pluridisciplinaire. Notre séminaire vous invite à aborder le sujet en
question des points de vue de l’histoire, la littérature, géographie,
imagologie, cartographie, anthropologie, sociologie, les sciences
sociales etc. L’histoire de la civilisation est en grande mesure
l’histoire des voyages, des mobilités, migrations, y compris leur
intégration dans de nouvelles topographies si bien que la lecture et
l’écriture de ces expériences (littérature de voyage et cartographie,
documents, cartes, illustrations etc.). Autres thèmes de discussion : la
circulation et réception des documents, livres, idées, influences
culturelles, traductions, histoire des voyages et voyage des histoires,
les espaces de la communication interculturelle et internationale, les
conflits d’intérêts, la relation voyage – connaissance – pouvoir,
discours de l’identité et de la différance, poétique de l’exileetc.
