This paper provides an introduction to the contributions presented in this thematic issue dedicated to the spatial humanities. Three main themes are addressed: (1) the processing of spatial information in textual corpora resulting from work in the human and social sciences, mainly in literary studies; (2) problems of acquisition, spatialisation and dissemination of geographical data of the past and from cultural heritage, thus, here, more connected with research in history; (3) spatial information and its processing and uses in archaeology. For each of these topics, we present the founding initiatives with historiographical elements, a brief status quaestionis and a synthesis of the contributions. |
