presentation

The journal Caliban was created in 1964. Entitled Anglophonia/Caliban from 1997 to January 2014 (alternating with the journal of linguistics Anglophonia/Sigma, with one issue a year), it took its original title Caliban again in 2014. There are two issues per year. It is devoted to the literatures and civilisations of English-speaking countries (British Isles, USA, Canada, Africa, Australia, New Zealand, India, Caribbean Islands, etc...). Every issue is thematic and favours recent research in the fields of literature, civilisation and visual arts. It offers young searchers the opportunity to have their research known.

The papers collected in this volume examine the construction and development of a musical mindscape in the English-speaking world, along with its creatively fertile potential. The word "geographies" leads to question the notions of identity, territory, frontier, opening and closure, their various meanings and their complementary roles in the fields of literature, music, cinema and opera. Besides the original anchoring of a musical genre, a work or a composer in a specific territory, this volume considers how they cross territorial or generic boundaries and evolve in other geographical, linguistic and semiotic contexts.
