Download or read book History of Cartography written by Leo Bagrow and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This illustrated work is intended to acquaint readers with the early maps produced in both Europe and the rest of the world, and to tell us something of their development, their makers and printers, their varieties and characteristics. The authors' chief concern is with the appearance of maps: they exclude any examination of their content, or of scientific methods of mapmaking. This book ends in the second half of the eighteenth century, when craftsmanship was superseded by specialized science and the machine. As a history of the evolution of the early map, it is a stunning work of art and science. This expanded second edition of Bagrow and Skelton's History of Cartography marks the reappearance of this seminal work after a hiatus of nearly a half century. As a reprint project undertaken many years after the book last appeared, finding suitable materials to work from proved to be no easy task. Because of the wealth of monochrome and color plates, the book could only be properly reproduced using the original materials. Ultimately the authors were able to obtain materials from the original printer Scotchprints or contact films made directly from original plates, thus allowing the work to preserve the beauty and clarity of the illustrations. Old maps, collated with other materials, help us to elucidate the course of human history. It was not until the eighteenth century, however, that maps were gradually stripped of their artistic decoration and transformed into plain, specialist sources of information based upon measurement. Maps are objects of historical, artistic, and cultural significance, and thus collecting them seems to need no justification, simply enjoyment.

This book was released on 2013-03-28T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tra la fine del Quattrocento e l’inizio del Cinquecento la cultura europea venne rivoluzionata dai nuovi saperi e dalle scoperte geografiche compiute oltre i limiti del mondo conosciuto nell’antichità. In poco più di un secolo si dischiusero agli occidentali orizzonti ignoti e inesplorati che dovettero essere inseriti in un’immagine della Terra fino ad allora sostanzialmente limitata all’ecumene tolemaica. La geografia e la cartografia del Cinquecento testimoniano le ipotesi avanzate dagli uomini del tempo sulla forma e le dimensioni del pianeta che i viaggi e le relazioni odeporiche svelavano alla curiosità europea. Alla luce di questo delicato e interessantissimo travaglio culturale, quale poteva essere l’immagine della Terra di un uomo italiano di media cultura alla fine del secolo? Il nobile milanese Urbano Monte, incantato da un breve incontro con alcuni ambasciatori giapponesi giunti in visita in Europa, decise di realizzare un aggiornato compendio geocartografico arricchito da tavole originali che permette di cogliere il difficile processo di costruzione di questa nuova rappresentazione del mondo. La straordinarietà dell’opera analizzata in questo libro consiste nell’essere una mirabile testimonianza da un lato della persistente forza della cultura classica, per quanto riguarda il Vecchio Mondo; dall’altro, dell’applicazione dei nuovi saperi costruiti grazie ai viaggi e alle scoperte geografiche più recenti, nella descrizione dei Nuovi Mondi.
