商品描述
This Open Access book provides a comprehensive and multi-layered understanding of the development of Adriatic Sea nautical cartography from its beginnings in the late Middle Ages to the implementation of geodetic and hydrographic surveys in the early nineteenth century. During the early modern period, the importance of nautical charts exceeded mere navigational purpose as they also became a medium for conveying an extensive array of socioeconomic information and messages. The authors examine how the geographical characteristics and social elements of the Adriatic Sea and its surroundings were observed, understood, and cartographically represented in accordance with contemporary scientific, technological, socioeconomic, cultural, or political frameworks using various phenomenological viewpoints and methodological techniques. Since the Adriatic Sea has historically functioned as a smaller-scale version of the Mediterranean, its contents transcend its geographical boundaries and are also broadly applicable to other Mediterranean regions.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本開放存取的書籍提供了對亞得里亞海海圖發展的全面且多層次的理解，涵蓋了從中世紀晚期的起源到十九世紀初地籍和水文調查的實施。在早期現代時期，海圖的重要性超越了單純的航行目的，因為它們也成為傳遞廣泛社會經濟信息和訊息的媒介。作者探討了亞得里亞海及其周邊地區的地理特徵和社會元素是如何被觀察、理解並根據當時的科學、技術、社會經濟、文化或政治框架進行海圖表現的，並使用了各種現象學觀點和方法技術。由於亞得里亞海歷史上一直作為地中海的小型版本，其內容超越了地理邊界，並且在其他地中海地區也具有廣泛的適用性。
