Summary:
Dans ce dialogue philosophique et géographique, Augustin Berque et Damien Deville nous invitent à reposer les pieds sur Terre en considérant autrement les territoires dans lesquels nous vivons.

Summary:
Dans ce dialogue philosophique et géographique, Augustin Berque et Damien Deville nous invitent à reposer les pieds sur Terre en considérant autrement les territoires dans lesquels nous vivons. Car une géographie fondée sur des cartes froides, par trop quantitatives et qui séparent les individus de leur « environnement », entretient une opposition qui n’a pas lieu d’être. « L’être se crée en créant son milieu. » Rendre compte de cette réciprocité et des liens qui rattachent chaque lieu à celles et ceux qui s’y épanouissent, en utilisant d’autres noms et d’autres représentations, c’est se donner les moyens de veiller sur l’ensemble des milieux terrestres. Du Japon à la France, les deux grands géographes mobilisent les paysages qu’ils ont parcourus et étudiés pour que nous puissions à notre tour porter un regard éclairé sur le monde.
