World Maps explores how maps have shaped our understanding of the world, from ancient depictions to propaganda maps, revealing cultural, scientific, and social perspectives.
A Journey Through Eras and Cultures: explore how different civilizations have represented the world over the centuries, from 18th-century Buddhist maps in Japan to the bold speculations of European cartographers. The Mystery and Wonder of Cartography: discover how ancient maps reflected not only geography but also beliefs, myths, and dreams of uncharted lands and distant civilizations. From Speculative Maps to the Modern World: understand the evolution of cartography, from imaginative depictions to precise tools, revealing how humans have sought to make sense of the world. An Expert in Rare Maps as Your Guide: written by Kevin J. Brown, renowned dealer of rare maps and founder of Geographicus Rare Antique Maps, this book offers a deep and authoritative analysis of historical cartography.
This illustrated book relates the history of the world through maps, from the first maps known to propaganda maps in the 20th century. It not only provides geographical descriptions, but also retraces the history of our perception of the world, of our fellow human beings, and fundamentally of us. The maps included show different ways – religious, social, scientific, economic – of seeing the world and of relating to it.
