This comprehensive book delves into the intricate geological record and the evolution of ideas surrounding the Variscan orogenic belt in France and its neighboring regions. Volume 1 serves as a foundational introduction, providing a comprehensive overview of the Variscan period's impact on the geology of France and the unique challenges involved in studying this ancient orogen. A historical narrative is presented to contextualize the Variscan belt within the broader history of Earth Sciences, highlighting the various concepts and theories that have been applied to it over the years.
To facilitate a comprehensive understanding, a paleogeodynamic analysis of the Variscan cycle is undertaken, laying the groundwork for the subsequent exploration of the orogen's evolution through the examination of the magmatic, metamorphic, and tectonic record during the early phases (from the Cambrian to the Lower Carboniferous).
Volume 2 takes a deeper dive into the late evolution of the Variscan orogenic belt, focusing on its disintegration in a high-temperature context during the Upper Carboniferous and Permian periods. The sedimentary archives are meticulously described, shedding light on the geological characteristics and the intriguing questions raised by this ancient orogen.
Through its comprehensive coverage, this book offers valuable insights into the complex geological history of the Variscan orogenic belt, providing a comprehensive foundation for researchers, students, and enthusiasts alike.
