In 1455, the Venetian patrician Giosafat Barbaro encountered an old friend in surprising circumstances. As a young merchant in the Black Sea port of Tana, Barbaro had met and befriended a local Tatar notable named Chebechzi. At the end of his time in Tana, Barbaro returned home expecting never to see Chebechzi again. He certainly did not expect to find him enslaved in a Venetian wine shop ten years later. At the moment, Barbaro acted immediately to assert Chebechzi’s freedom and help him return home. Later in life, Barbaro also wrote a memoir in which he reflected on this incident and the meaning of his friendship with Chebechzi and other Tatars. Barker’s talk will situate Barbaro’s reflections in the broader contexts of slavery and freedom, friendship and reciprocity, and the complex web of medieval Venetian-Tatar power relations.

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.

Common Ground Research Networks

Founded in 2008, The Inclusive Museum Research Network is brought together by a shared concern for the future role of the museum and how it can become more inclusive. We seek to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries. As a Research Network, we are defined by our scope and concerns and motivated to build strategies for action framed by our shared themes and tensions.

L’INTÉGRATION OUEST-AFRICAINE : AJUSTEMENTS OU REMISE EN CAUSE ? L’intégration des États ouest-africaine enregistre indiscutablement de véritables retombées dans plusieurs domaines. Ces satisfactions ne cachent pas pour autant de graves crises nées des mésententes et divergences entre États membres. Au sein de la CEDEAO, le point culminant des divergences survint avec l’annonce du retrait du Mali, du Burkina Faso et du Niger le 28 janvier 2024. Cette sortie de ces pays de la Communauté provoqua non seulement des répercussions dépassant largement les frontières politiques, mais fit planer de sombres jours sur libre circulation des personnes, de leurs biens et le développement socioéconomique sous-régional. Quels sont les fondements de cette décision de quitter la CEDEAO ? S'inscrit-elle dans la logique de rejets des instruments de gestion des crises ? Ne s’agit-il pas plutôt d’aspirations à des réajustements face aux nouveaux enjeux sécuritaires ? À quel type d’intégration les ouest-africains aspirent ardemment-ils ?
