The International Coronelli-Society for the Study of Globes and the Map Department of the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin

In Berlin begann die Herstellung von Globen erst im späten 18. Jahrhundert, entwickelte sich jedoch im 19. Jahrhundert zu einer international sehr erfolgreichen Produktion. Zu nennen sind vor allem die Verlage Dietrich Reimer, Ernst Schotte, Julius Heymann und -für das 20 Jahrhundert- Columbus. Diese rege, aber vielleicht noch etwas zu wenig erforschte Verlagstätigkeit und das 2021 wieder eröffnete Gebäude der Staatsbibliothek „Unter den Linden“ sind Anlass, Forscherinnen und Forscher der Globenkunde und alle Interessierten nach 25 Jahren erneut nach Berlin einzuladen. Die Tagung wird im Humboldt-Saal der Staatsbibliothek, Unter den Linden 8, stattfinden.

Imago Mundi and the University of Lyon will be glad to welcome you back to France during the 30th International Conference on the History of Cartography [ICHC]. The idea of organizing the conference in Lyon with the theme "Confluences - Interdisciplinarity and New Challenges in the History of Cartography" is inspired by the very location of the city, as a confluence between North and South, between Saône and Rhône rivers, the Rhône Valley and the Alps.
