Hesperis-Tamuda

Aims & Scope

To create a scientific journal is to create a way of being alive.

But since man is only a creature, it is not enough for him to say “be” to something for it to be.

When launching a journal, developers never know if it will disappear after a few deliveries/releases or if it will register in time and survive.

This may have been the case with Hespéris.

Held on the baptismal font by the highest authorities of the French Protectorate, endowed with necessary material means, animated by a team of scientists who were each in his specialty a figurehead, Hespéris, it is true, had, at the beginning, all the assets for it.

But there was also a good chance it would fizzle out.

It was too closely linked, at its birth in 1921, to the work of the Protectorate.

The goal was to continue to probe into the mysteries of the protected society; taking over a country necessitated the possession of its secrets.

This work was first conducted by the French Scientific Mission since 1904.

Its results were made known to the public in a special periodical, called Archives marocaines until 1936, then Archives berbères of which it appeared only a few issues.

The creation of a new journal was intended to consolidate efforts and better cover the colonial enterprise in the process of stabilization after the Great War.

The name of Hespéris was obvious.

It was the term by which the Greeks designated ancient Morocco.
