<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The first Bridges lecture in 2018 will explore how humans have sought to make the Arctic legible (to borrow the phrase of James C. Scott), from pre-contact Inuit understandings of space and time, through the
practices and instruments of European maritime explorers, through the introduction of aviation and the refinement of Arctic air navigation, to the age of satellites. By bringing history, geography, and geometry into dialogue, Professors
<a href="https://www.sju.ca/event/bridges-lecture-series-presents-polar-projections-conceptualizing-and-rendering-arctic-spaces">
Moraru</a> and <a href="https://www.sju.ca/event/bridges-lecture-series-presents-polar-projections-conceptualizing-and-rendering-arctic-spaces">
Lackenbauer</a> will discuss how humans have measured, defined, and characterised space and time, and how mathematics continues to explain what is possible – and what is not.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
