Summary, etc "Mappings explores what mapping meant in the past and how its meanings have altered. It addresses some of the following provocative questions: How have maps and mapping served to order and represent physical, social and imaginative worlds? How has the practice of mapping shaped modern seeing and knowing? In what ways do changes in our experience of the world alter the meanings and practice of mapping, and vice versa?<br/>Among the topics that the authors investigate are mappings of terrestrial space on a large scale; mapping and localism, or the 'chorographic' scale' personal mappings on and of the human body; and cosmographic or imaginative mappings beyond the scale of direct earthly experience.<br/>In their diverse expressions, maps and the representational processes of mapping have constructed the world's spaces since the early Renaissance. The map's spatial fixity - its capacity to frame, control and communicate information by combining image and text - and cartography's increasing claims to scientific authority make mapping at once an instrument and a metaphor for a rational understanding of our planet."--
