cfp: maps and cartographies in the English-speaking world in the seventeenth and eighteenth century

April 22, 2020/ Matthew Edney

The Société des études anglo-américaines des XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles has just announced the theme of its next colloquium, to be held in January 2021 in Paris:

Cartes et cartographies dans le monde anglophone aux 17e et 18e siècles

Maps and cartographies in the English-speaking world in the seventeenth and eighteenth century

Here is the call for papers. The deadline for proposals is 20 July 2020.

Should be fun. I hope to be there.

Mapping as Process

Mapping as Process is a space for me to explore a new approach to understanding mapping and its history. The exploration will eventually contribute to a book of the same name.
