ABSTRACT

The majority of texts refer primarily to the geography of sexualities that offer researchers a robust conceptual, theoretical and more generally epistemological foundation. This demonstrates a degree of maturity of this field of study that deserves to be highlighted. The corollary of this foundation is the undisputed leadership of anglophone geography. This collective is a transnational constellation of researchers, some of whom have established more or less strong ties in the context of scientific events while others have begun to undertake an intellectual exchange through their work. However, Putting Lesbians geographies on the Geographical Map, does not only mean spreading lesbian geography among all the geographies of the world, it also makes this geography a fully fledged component of geography, a component recognised for its ability to re-conceptualise and think better about the contemporary world and the gap that exists between norms, the everyday and the extraordinary.
