Representing the world: a brief history of maps
Europe and Africa in the middle, the North at the top... we're all used to seeing the same map of the world. It seems to have always existed, and we rarely question it: but how did we arrive at this planisphere? What other representations of the world exist? How have maps evolved over the centuries?
This is what Bérangère Descamps, in charge of mediation, will be talking about during this event.

Rendez-vous Friendciscaines?
The Friendciscaines Rendezvous are moments of encounter between you - subscribers, visitors, the curious - and us - curators, lecturers, mediators. On Tuesdays, we get together with friends in the Franciscaines' creative salons for a talk on an unexpected theme, given by a member of the Franciscaines team who is a specialist in the field. Open and convivial, a time of discovery and sharing around what brings us together: all Friendciscaines, all passionate about culture.
