Book Grote atlas van de Verenigde Oost Indische Compagnie Comprehensive atlas of the Dutch United East India Company

Download or read book Grote atlas van de Verenigde Oost Indische Compagnie Comprehensive atlas of the Dutch United East India Company written by Bea Brommer and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Containing some 420 pages and approximately 600 facsimile maps, plans and topographical drawings dating from the 17th, 18th and early 19th centuries, most of which have never been published before, this pioneering work offers a complete picture of those parts of mainland Africa which at that time were included in the VOC's charter, e.g. the areas between the west coast of present-day South Africa and the Red Sea. The emphasis in this is obviously on the establishment in 1652 and later expansion of the Cape Colony and its outposts, but by way of an introduction a major section is dedicated to the Company's cartography of the sea routes around Africa from the Netherlands to the Far East, including the various islands in the Atlantic and the India Ocean that Dutch seafarers as a rule called at on their way to the East Indies. In addition, much attention is given to Mauritius, Madagascar and some other, smaller islands in the Indian Ocean, which for shorter or longer periods were also included within the Company's sphere of influence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On June 3, 1621, the Dutch West India Company was granted a charter for a trade monopoly in the West Indies (meaning the Caribbean) by the Republic of the Seven United Netherlands and given jurisdiction over the Atlantic slave trade, Brazil, the Caribbean, and North America. The area where the company could operate consisted of West Africa (between the Tropic of Cancer and the Cape of Good Hope) and the Americas, which included the Pacific Ocean and the eastern part of New Guinea. The intended purpose of the charter was to eliminate competition, particularly Spanish or Portuguese, between the various trading posts established by the merchants. The company became instrumental in the Dutch colonization of the Americas.

Book The History of Cartography  Volume 4

Download or read book The History of Cartography Volume 4 written by Matthew H. Edney and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2020-05-15 with total page 1803 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its launch in 1987, the History of Cartography series has garnered critical acclaim and sparked a new generation of interdisciplinary scholarship. Cartography in the European Enlightenment, the highly anticipated fourth volume, offers a comprehensive overview of the cartographic practices of Europeans, Russians, and the Ottomans, both at home and in overseas territories, from 1650 to 1800. The social and intellectual changes that swept Enlightenment Europe also transformed many of its mapmaking practices. A new emphasis on geometric principles gave rise to improved tools for measuring and mapping the world, even as large-scale cartographic projects became possible under the aegis of powerful states. Yet older mapping practices persisted: Enlightenment cartography encompassed a wide variety of processes for making, circulating, and using maps of different types. The volume’s more than four hundred encyclopedic articles explore the era’s mapping, covering topics both detailed—such as geodetic surveying, thematic mapping, and map collecting—and broad, such as women and cartography, cartography and the economy, and the art and design of maps. Copious bibliographical references and nearly one thousand full-color illustrations complement the detailed entries.
