Résumé
What field (work) is, is a recent concern in French geography. A study of the non-representational theories in geography, with a special interest taken in a Deleuzian perspective, underlines the role the body and lived experience play in the process of knowledge production (resistance). This thought is based on the study of Le Travail en Sicile (Rochefort, 1961), a masterpiece of a French geographer of the 1960s. This study gives rise to a discussion about the field and fieldwork as a relational set (the researcher, its topic, its method, its area), which is open and changeable, marked by methodological and theoretical challenges directly connected to lived experience.
