The Voyage of the Vizcaína
Between 1492 and 1504, Christopher Columbus made four attempts to find the East by heading West. In the process he lost a fair number of ships; on his last journey alone he lost no fewer than four. Although Columbus also left written documentation of where his boats had gone down, no one has been able to locate even one of the wrecks. (His reports were probably inaccurate, perhaps willfully so--he was frequently less than truthful about his adventures in the New World.) In the mid-1990s, an American expatriate living in Panama--an aging surfer dude who ran a Scuba-diving outfitting shop and diving school--a Panamanian real estate agent, and an American on vacation with his son all claimed to...
The Oxford Handbook of the Prehistoric Arctic

Half a planet dies and comes back alive in a couple of millennia. The dynamics are sometimes...

Comment nous relions-nous à notre environnement et comment nous en détachons-nous ? Comment en sommes-nous arrivés à vivre dans des sociétés dont les rapports au milieu vivant se sont appauvris au point de menacer notre monde de devenir inhabitable ? On a longtemps défini les humains par les liens les unissant les uns aux autres. Or ils se distinguent aussi par les relations singulières qu'ils établissent au-delà d'eux-mêmes, avec les animaux, les plantes, le cosmos. Sur tous les continents, chasseurs-cueilleurs, horticulteurs ou pasteurs nomades interagissent de mille manières avec une multitude d'autres êtres. Partout, les groupes humains s'attachent affectivement à des anima...
