Description
Summary:This sequence of the paper “Vidal historian” (http://confins.revues.org/9636) aims to situate the geographer Paul Vidal de la Blache (1845-1918) in a slow process of institutionalization of geography in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries; and in his own transition from historian to geographer. His certification in history from the École Normale Supérieure and École francaise d’Athènes, and his subsequent relationships with historians (even after been recognized as a geographer), marked his background and career and has been analysed in the first paper. From this confluence of history and geography emerged an original conception of geographical time. This is the specif notion that I intend to depict and define as an important methodological tool to the study of Human Geography and, notably, to the field geographer and will be analysed in this second paper.
