34. According to Eliel, E. L.; Wilen, S. H. In Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds; 1994; pp 19-20, "the most fundamental distinction one can make between configuration and conformation, is to say that configurational differences imply differences in bond angles, whereas conformational differences involve differences in torsion angles (including in both case, differences, that are exclusively in sign)." On the basis of this distinction, molecules of identical constitution but differing in bond angles (cf. Figure 1h) can be thus considered configurational isomers.
