About this event
IAS Visiting Fellows Professor Mariana Araujo Lamego & Professor André Reyes Novaes deliver a seminar on their research.
In our upcoming presentation, we will delve into two compelling case studies that illuminate the mobility of geographical knowledge in Brazil. Our first case study examines how a Portuguese historian navigated geographical imaginations related to exploration and colonialism while curating a historical geographical exhibition in São Paulo in 1954. The second case study focuses on the circulation of academic travellers to the Rio de Janeiro 1956 International Geographical Conference. Our overarching goal is to unveil the intricate process behind the formation of Brazilian geographical knowledge. We argue that scientific knowledge is intricately shaped through a complex web of epistemic and cultural exchanges within a transnational scientific network embedded in power relations, asymmetries, partnerships, and collaborative endeavours.
