读得很累……
评分妈呀终于啃完啦
评分在巴黎莎士比亚书店买的,当时有个很帅很巴黎的男生拿了这本书,我好奇也拿下来翻了翻,觉得还不错,就带回了家。断断续续看了大半年终于看完了,挺有意思的,作者非常会讲故事,但真的很难啃。

评分读过所有的英文原版书里,最难的。。。老了半年,终于看完了,真不容易。不过值得看看。
Jerry Brotton is Professor of Renaissance Studies at Queen Mary University of London, and a leading expert in the history of maps and Renaissance cartography. His most recent book, The Sale of the Late King's Goods: Charles I and his Art Collection (2006), was short-listed for the Samuel Johnson Prize as well as the Hessell-Tiltman History Prize. In 2010, he was the presenter of the BBC4 series 'Maps: Power, Plunder and Possession'.
Throughout history, maps have been fundamental in shaping our view of the world, and our place in it. But far from being purely scientific objects, maps of the world are unavoidably ideological and subjective, intimately bound up with the systems of power and authority of particular times and places. Mapmakers do not simply represent the world, they construct it out of the ideas of their age. In this scintillating book, Jerry Brotton examines the significance of 12 maps - from the almost mystical representations of ancient history to the satellite-derived imagery of today. He vividly recreates the environments and circumstances in which each of the maps was made, showing how each conveys a highly individual view of the world. Brotton shows how each of his maps both influenced and reflected contemporary events and how, by reading it, we can better understand the worlds that produced it.
Although the way we map our surroundings is changing, Brotton argues that maps today are no more definitive or objective than they have ever been, but that they continue to define, shape and recreate the world. Readers of this book will never look at a map in quite the same way again.

评分历史科目 – 不是每个人都会对历史有兴趣, 我就是一个其中最主要的原因很多时候历史书写的比较的沉闷及无趣。 地图地理科目 – 另外一个令人昏昏欲睡的学校科目。 两者过去不会有太多的结合, 唯一的共同点 – 不“讨喜” 我们认识地图是希望通过地图认识更多我们的世界,...
评分很多女生都自嘲自己是“超级路痴”,除了大型商场里面那里有好看的衣服好喝的奶茶可以立即找到以外。其他地方总是一脸的茫然。即便是现在手机上有最先进的智能地图,大多也只是摆设。科学家们为她们开脱道: 自原始时代,男性和女性承担的责任不同:男性负责野外狩猎,女性负...
评分谷歌地图标榜可以在全球任何地方准确指出我们的位置,“我们将成为知道迷路是什么意思的最后一代人”。此语虽有言过其实之嫌,倒也有几分道理。电子地图大显神威,如今,人们很少需要问路,智能手机自会替我们安排。包括语音导航、沿途设施、乃至交通拥堵情况,我们对这份唾手...
