A History of the World in Twelve Maps pdf epub mobi 圖書描述

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.

很多女生都自嘲自己是“超級路癡”，除瞭大型商場裏麵那裏有好看的衣服好喝的奶茶可以立即找到以外。其他地方總是一臉的茫然。即便是現在手機上有最先進的智能地圖，大多也隻是擺設。科學傢們為她們開脫道：自原始時代，男性和女性承擔的責任不同：男性負責野外狩獵，女性負...
