Norman Henniges (Humboldt University of Berlin) is a geographer and historian of knowledge and science (nineteenth to twentieth centuries). His research fields include historical geographies of global knowledge and the social and cultural history of geography, geology, and cartography. His key publication is “Die Spur des Eises” (2017).Johannes Mattes (Austrian Academy of Sciences) is a historian of knowledge and science focusing on Central and Eastern Europe from the eighteenth to twentieth centuries (geosciences, life sciences, physics, and medicine), with an emphasis on global entanglements. His key publications include “Collaborative Research in Imperial Vienna” (2024) and “Reisen ins Unterirdische” (2015).Marianne Klemun (University of Vienna) is a historian of science (sixteenth to nineteenth centuries). Her research fields include cultures and political contexts of the history of natural history (geology, botany, gardens, travel, collecting; communication and documentation of sciences). Her key publication is with Spring (Eds.), “Scientific Expeditions as Experiments” (2016).
