le-47e-symposium-de-linhigeo-aux-eyzies-de-tayac-france - Travaux du Comité français d'Histoire de la Géologie

In September 2022, the Comité français d'histoire de la géologie (Cofrhigéo) organized the 47th symposium of the International Committee on the History of Geological sciences (Inhigeo) at Les Eyzies de Tayac in southwest France.

The organizing committee (Françoise Dreyer, Gaston Godard and Pascal Richet, together with Claudine Cohen) offered to publish the Proceedings. These comprise 21 papers on a variety of subjects, presented in September 2022, plus 15 abstracts submitted by other authors.

The collection reveals the wide variety of topics covered, which is a feature of Inhigeo symposia and a vivid illustration of the vitality of the History of Geology.

En septembre 2022, le Comité français d’histoire de la géologie (Cofrhigéo) organisait le 47e symposium de l’International Committee on the History of Geological sciences (Inhigeo) aux Eyzies de Tayac dans le sud- ouest de la France.

Le comité d’organisation (Françoise Dreyer, Gaston Godard et Pascal Richet associés à Claudine Cohen) a proposé aux orateurs la publication des Actes. Ceux-ci rassemblent 21 communications écrites sur des sujets variés et présentées en septembre 2022 ainsi que 15 résumés soumis par d'autres auteurs.

L’ensemble révèle la grande variété des thèmes abordés, ce qui est d'ailleurs une caractéristique des symposiums Inhigeo et constitue une illustration vivante de la vitalité de l'Histoire de la géologie.
