La «géohistoire», expression née sous la plume de Fernand Braudel, s'intéresse aux interactions entre les dimensions géographique et historique pour proposer une analyse des sociétés sur le temps long et à différentes échelles. A l'ère de la mondialisation, le croisement des perspectives spatiales et temporelles prend toute son importance et devient presque une nécessité. Ce manuel pédagogique propose une mise au point simple et critique sur les outils d'interface entre histoire et géographie. Assortie de cartes originales et de nombreuses définitions, cette introduction, première du genre, révèle toute la fécondité de l'approche géohistorique.

"Meer dan van enig ander gewest, is de kaart van Zeeland er een van vele en ingrijpende veranderingen. Veel historie is uit het landschap van vandaag verdwenen. Maar gelukkig hebben we de oude kaarten nog. Vaak prachtige staaltjes van vakmanschap van landmeters en kaartmakers, maar bovenal heel informatief. Ze getuigen van de intensieve omgang met het water, ze tonen en verklaren de lijnen die in stad en dorp werden getrokken en ze brengen ons op het spoor van alles wat eigen is aan het Zeeuwse landschap: burgen en forten, boerderijen en buitenplaatsen, maar ook een vergeten rond vliegveldje en een verdwenen sluis. 0In dit boek brengen 48 oude kaarten, waarvan de meeste in kleur, en begeleidende teksten het landschap van toen dichtbij de kijker van nu."

In this beautifully conceived book, Ayesha Ramachandran reconstructs the imaginative struggles of early modern artists, philosophers, and writers to make sense of something that we take for granted: the world, imagined as a whole. Once a new, exciting, and frightening concept, "the world" was transformed in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. But how could one envision something that no one had ever seen in its totality? The Worldmakers moves beyond histories of globalization to explore how "the world" itself-variously understood as an object of inquiry, a comprehensive category, and a system of order-was self-consciously shaped by human agents. Gathering an international cast of characters, from Dutch cartographers and French philosophers to Portuguese and English poets, Ramachandran describes a history of firsts: the first world atlas, the first global epic, the first modern attempt to develop a systematic natural philosophy-all part of an effort by early modern thinkers to capture "the world" on the page.
