Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Bücher zählen bis heute zu den wichtigsten kulturellen Errungenschaften der Menschheit. Ihre Erfindung war mit der Einführung des Buchdrucks ähnlich bedeutsam, wie die des Internets: Erstmals wurde eine massenweise Weitergabe von Informationen möglich. Bildung, Wissenschaft, Forschung, aber auch die Unterhaltung wurde auf neuartige, technisch wie inhaltlich, revolutionäre Basis gestellt. Bücher verändern die Gesellschaft bis heute. Die technischen Möglichkeiten des Massen-Buchdrucks führten zu einem radikalen Zuwachs an Titeln im 18. und 19. Jahrhundert. Dennoch waren die Rahmenbedingungen immer noch ganz andere als heute: Wer damals ein Buch schrieb, verfasste oftmals ein Lebenswerk. Dies spiegelt sich in der hohen Qualität alter Bücher wider. Leider altern Bücher. Papier ist nicht für die Ewigkeit gemacht. Daher haben wir es uns zur Aufgabe gemacht, das Wissen der Menschheit zu konservieren und alte Bücher in möglichst hoher Qualität zu niedrigen Preisen verfügbar zu machen.

Facsimil de la edición príncipe de 1507 de la introducción a la cosmografía de Waldseemüller. En 1505, Mathias Ringmann y Martin Waldseemüller se dieron a la tarea de realizar una nueva edición de la Geographia de Ptolomeo que superara a las anteriores y que incluyera la mayor cantidad posible de noticias derivadas de los nuevos descubrimientos geográficos. Por ese tiempo llegó a sus manos un ejemplar del Mundus novus escrito por Américo Vespucio. La lectura de este texto los entusiasmó tanto que, sin abandonar la idea de la nueva edición de la Geographia, se decidió preparar antes un mapamundi. Para facilitar la lectura de este mapa, Martin Waldseemüller escribió la Cosmographiae introdutio y decidió incluir en ella, para dar credibilidad al mapa, la traducción al latín de las Cuatro navegaciones. Hoy, en conmemoración de los 500 años de esta obra, se presenta una edición en español con notas y un estudio introductorio del doctor Miguel León-Portilla. En esta ocasión se incluyen también los facsímiles de la Cosmographiae introductio y el mapamundi de Waldseemüller, tanto en impreso como en versión digital. 235x160mm. (9¼x6¼").

[Innsbruck, 1903] Reprint Amst., 1968. [3],55 pp. 27 double-page b./w. plates (numbered 1-20, 20a, 21-26), 2 synoptical tables of topographical names in Africa and America illustrating the relation of the two maps to several other maps before 1516 & several further reproductions illustrating the 41-page introduction in German with a parallel English translation. Nicely re-bound in modern hardcover (dark blue linen, gilt lettered burgundy red label on the spine). Folio. (Theatrum Orbis Terrarum).A reprint of the facsimile edition of 1903 containing the two monumental wall maps by Martin Waldseemüller (1470-1521), published in 1507 and 1516. Both are reproduced in ca. 1903 from the only surviving copies in the library of Wolfegg Castle in Württemberg. A single copy of the 1507 map survived, presently housed at the Library of Congress in Washington. The Waldseemüller map, Universalis Cosmographia, is a printed wall map of the world by German cartographer Martin Waldseemüller, originally published in April 1507. It is known as the first map to use the name "America". Its main map, and his globe gores of the same date, depict the American continents in two pieces. These depictions differ from the small inset map in the top border, which shows the two American continents joined by an isthmus. The name America is placed on what is now called South America on the main map, this being the first map known to use this name. As explained in Cosmographiae Introductio, the name was bestowed in honor of the Italian Amerigo Vespucci. The map is drafted on a modification of Ptolemy's second projection, expanded to accommodate the Americas and the high latitudes. [Source: Wikipedia].

Vienne: Gaspar Treschel, 1541. Woodcut, printed area 285 x 430mm. A fine example of one of the earliest obtainable maps to show the New World, this example being the fourth and last issue of the Fries reduction of Wäldseemüller's famous map, which is the first printed atlas map devoted to the Americas and said to have been compiled with the assistance of Columbus himself. It shows the eastern coasts of America and the western coast of Europe & Africa 55º North to 35º South, with a rudimentary 'Florida', Cuba, Hispaniola and Jamaica. In his version Fries added a Spanish flag over Cuba and a vignette scene in South America depicting cannibals and an opossum, both reported by Vespucci. It was Wäldseemüller's world map of 1507 that first used the name 'America', placing in southern South America, after Vespucci, who explored that region and proved it was not part of Asia. When the name began to be used for the entire landmass Wäldseemüller used this map to emphasise Columbus's importance: a Latin text above 'Terra Nova' reads 'This land and the adjacent islands were discovered by Christopher Columbus on the mandate of the King of Castile'. This map was originally intended not for an edition of Ptolemy but for a new 'Chronica mundi' being written by Wäldseemüller: his death c.1520 caused the project to be shelved, so the woodcuts were used to publish a smaller sized and so cheaper edition of the 'Geography'. The title, as above, is on the reverse. This edition was one of two with a text edited by Michael Servetus, who would later be burned at the stake for heresy, on a pyre of his own books, on the behest of John Calvin. BURDEN: 4.

Lyons: Melchior & Gaspar Trechsel, 1535. Coloured woodcut, printed area 410 x 400mm. Repairs to the bottom margin at centre fold. Waldseemuller's 'modern' map of the British Isles, using the block cut for the 1522 edition of Ptolemy's 'Geographia'. The famous eastern slant of Scotland according to Ptolemy has been corrected, but the outline is almost square. Ireland is an inverted pear-shape, with the 'purgatorium of S. Patrick' in the north. In the Atlantic is 'Brazil', an island that emerged from the sea every seven years, a myth that endured on maps into the 19th century. SHIRLEY: British Isles 1477-1650, Item 25.

Lyons: Melchor & Gaspar Trechsel, 1535. Woodcut, printed area 330 x 450mm. A fine example of the Fries reduction of Wäldseemüller's Ptolemaic map Greece, within a trapezoid border. The title, as above, is on the verso, with a Latin text bordered with decorative columns. Originally intended not for a Ptolemy edition but for a new 'Chronica mundi' being written by Wäldseemüller, his death c.1520 caused the project to be shelved, so the woodcuts were used to publish a smaller sized and so cheaper edition of the 'Geography'. ZACHARAKIS: 1829.

Lyon, 1535. Coloured woodcut, printed area 300 x 380mm. The Fries reduction of Wäldseemüller's map of 'modern' Turkey, including Cyprus. Originally intended not for a Ptolemy edition but for a new 'Chronica mundi' being written by Wäldseemüller, his death c.1520 caused the project to be shelved, so the reduced woodcuts were used to publish a smaller sized and so cheaper edition of the 'Geography'. On verso is a text surrounded by woodcut columnar decorations.
