Rapid climate changes and increasing migratory flows emphasize ever more the crucial significance of water as a source of life but also as a threat to human existence. In this perspective the IV International & Interdisciplinary Symposium takes place under the heading "Books, Travels, Travelers, and the Discourse of Water / Libros, viajes, viajeros y el discurso del agua".

By bringing together in Flensburg scholars from different disciplines and countries on both sides of the Atlantic, from Europe, North and Latin America, the Symposium inquires the evolution of current and past discourses of water in literature, travel chronicles, myths, utopias, and sciences.
