Door mijn vooropleiding als historicus wilde ik graag een historisch thema onderzoeken in de regio waar ik ben opgegroeid: Westerwolde. De ontwikkelingsgang van dit gebied heeft mij altijd al gefascineerd en zodoende heb ik de kans aangegrepen om nader onderzoek te verrichten over dit landschap. Ik dank dr. Jeroen Benders voor zijn geduldige begeleiding gedurende het hele onderzoek. Ik heb veelvuldig contact gehad met Jeroen en veel suggesties en tips van hem mogen ontvangen. Dank gaat ook uit naar dr. Albert Buursma. Albert was bereid als tweede lezer deze scriptie te beoordelen. Daarnaast heeft Albert mij herhaaldelijk op nuttige publicaties en bronnen gewezen, waardoor ik nieuwe inzichten kon verkrijgen. Naast Jeroen Benders en Albert Buursma, ben ik ook dank verschuldigd aan Jochem Abbes (voorzitter van de Historische Vereniging Westerwolde), Tjarko van Dijk (medewerker Museum de Oude Wolden) en Wilma Koning (archivaris Waterschap Hunze en Aa’s). Ik dank Jochem voor het feit dat ik gebruik mocht maken van zijn collectie historische documenten betreffende Westerwolde. -
Cuatro Siglos De Historia De La Cartografía En La Biblioteca De La Universidad De Sevilla Joaquín Cortés José. Departamento
Cuatro siglos de historia de la cartografía en la Biblioteca de la Universidad de Sevilla Joaquín Cortés José. Departamento de Cartoteca, Instituto de Cartografia de Andalucía. Eduardo Peñalver Gómez. Fondo Antiguo y Archivo Histórico, Biblioteca de la Universidad de Sevilla. El fondo antiguo de la Biblioteca de la Universidad de Sevilla está formado por una amplia colección de libros de los siglos XV al XIX que ha ido formándose a lo largo de los cinco siglos de historia de la Universidad, a partir de un primer núcleo original constituido por la librería del Colegio de Santa María de Jesús, con los libros donados por su fundador, Maese Rodrigo Fernández de Santaella, en los primeros años del siglo XVI. Desde la misma fundación el fondo de lo que acabaría siendo la Biblioteca de la Universidad de Sevilla no ha dejado de enriquecerse, sin duda con gran lentitud en los siglos XVI y XVII, y a mucho mayor ritmo en las dos centurias siguientes. A modo de primera aproximación a los origenes de los fondos de la biblioteca, cabe distinguir, sin ánimo de exhaustividad, las siguientes procedencias: a) Adquisiciones realizadas por el Colegio de Santa María de Jesús y la Universidad de Sevilla (ambas instituciones se separaron en 1776), muy escasas al menos hasta el siglo XIX. b) Donaciones de antiguos colegiales ñla mayoría en forma de aportaciones dinerarias--, entre las que destaca la muy notable realizada por el cardenal Luis Belluga, de tales dimensiones que obligó a hacer una ampliación de la biblioteca. c) Donaciones de personajes de relevancia en la historia de Sevilla ñcasos de Lorenzo Domínguez Pascual, Manuel Andérica, José María Valdenebro, Pedro Sáinz de Andino, Joaquín Hazañas, Alejandro Guichot, Luis y Santiago Montoto, etc. -

The stars are heighten in gold. An exceptionally decorative, oversized, very rare celestial chart, produced by Frederik de Wit illustrating the two hemispheres surrounded by six supplementary models, illustrating the Copernican hypothesis, the Ptolemaic hypothesis, the Tycho Brahe hypothesis, the phases of the moon relative to the Sun, the rotational pattern of the day, and the rotation pattern of the Moon around the Earth. Each major hemisphere is centered on the elliptic pole and rendered on a polar stereographic projection with an external orientation. The constellations are drawn and colored to emphasize the signs of the Zodiac and other famous constellations. De Wit's illustration of the constellations is clearly derived from the celestial hemispheres appearing as supplementary material on Joan Blaeu's 1658 wall map of the world (Shirley 371). This is the first of two states. The later state bears the imprint of Covens & Mortier. Rarity OCLC locates 3 institutional examples of the map.

Qui n’a jamais entendu parler de la Grande Ourse ou observé la casserole dans le ciel ? Qui ne s’est jamais posé la question de la signification de ces figures, qu’on appelle « constellations », illustrant le ciel nocturne ? En fait d’explication, il n’y en a qu’une : ces figures sont le fruit du hasard, de notre position dans l’espace, de notre vision du ciel en 2 dimensions et surtout de notre imagination … 4 OrigineOrigine desdes nomsnoms L'origine des noms de nos constellations est très ancienne. On a retrouvé en Arménie sur des dalles datant du 4e millénaire avant notre ère des représentations du Cygne, du Taureau ou du Lion. Les Babyloniens utilisaient déjà une bonne partie des constellations attribuées ensuite aux Grecs, en particulier celles du zodiaque. 5 On retrouve l’origine des constellations peu de temps après l’apparition de l’écriture, puisque des symboles cunéiformes représentant ces constellations ont été décelés sur des textes et des objets de civilisations aujourd’hui disparues, situées dans la vallée de l’Euphrate, il y a plus de 5 000 ans … Toutefois, il faudra attendre le IIème siècle ap. J-C. pour que l’astronome Grec Ptolémée procède à un découpage du ciel sur 1022 étoiles groupées en 48 constellations. Les constellations étaient ainsi la plupart du temps apparentées à des animaux ou figures mythologiques, dont l’utilité était aussi bien ésotérique (astrologie) que géographique, cartographique ou calendaire. -
308 the Visitor Was Confronted with a Dazzling Succession of Maps And
308 the visitor was confronted with a dazzling succession of maps and atlases, all of them, in their genre, masterpieces of cartography: sixteenth-century work by, for example, Saenredam, Plancius, Langenes and Heyns; from the seventeenth century, when Am- sterdam map production was at its height, the main exhibits were naturally products of the great houses of Blaeu, Hondius andjanssonius, though there were also pieces by Claes Jansz Visscher, Jacob Aertsz Colom and Pieter van der Keere. Joan Blaeu's Atlas maior, varying according to the edition from nine to twelve volumes, was represented by volumes from the Latin, French, Dutch, Spanish and German editions. There were also two extremely rare world maps by Frederik de Wit, Nova et accurata totius Africae tabula of 1700, each measuring no less than 168 by 120 cm. The eighteenth century was represented by, among other items, work by the map dealers and publishers Covens and Mortier and Reinier and Joshua Ottens. But it was clear that by this time the golden age of Amsterdam mapmaking had passed: the accent was now more obviously on copy- ing and compiling than on creative cartography. In the nineteenth century mapmaking passed more and more into the hands of government agencies, while the technology of map reproduction altered with the disappearance of copper engraving in favour of the faster and cheaper lithography. The ownership of maps and atlases-now based on in- creasingly accurate scientific work-moved into the province of the broad masses of the population. The exhibition included numerous examples of all these developments, with a number of original surveying instruments, manuscript maps and copper plates of maps providing the finishing touches. -

Beemster Polder)
WHC Nomination Documentation File Name: 899.pdf UNESCO Region: EUROPE AND THE NORTH AMERICA __________________________________________________________________________________________________ SITE NAME: Droogmakerij de Beemster (Beemster Polder) DATE OF INSCRIPTION: 4th December 1999 STATE PARTY: NETHERLANDS CRITERIA: C (i)(ii)(iv) DECISION OF THE WORLD HERITAGE COMMITTEE: Excerpt from the Report of the 23rd Session of the World Heritage Committee The Committee inscribed the site on the World Heritage List on the basis of criteria (i), (ii), and (iv): Criterion (i): The Beemster Polder is a masterpiece of creative planning, in which the ideals of antiquity and the Renaissance were applied to the design of a reclaimed landscape. Criterion (ii): The innovative and intellectually imaginative landscape of the Beemster Polder had a profound and lasting impact on reclamation projects in Europe and beyond. Criterion (iv): The creation of the Beemster Polder marks a major step forward in the interrelationship between humankind and water at a crucial period of social and economic expansion. Referring to the particular character of the nominations of the Netherlands, the Observer of the Netherlands informed the Committee that very recently the parliament of the Netherlands had accepted a policy document on the integration of cultural heritage – archaeology, built heritage and cultural landscapes - in national, provincial and local planning policies. World Heritage preservation is explicitly incorporated in this document. The Netherlands would be pleased to share this kind of experience with other States Parties. BRIEF DESCRIPTIONS The Beemster Polder, dating from the early 17th century, is the oldest area of reclaimed land in The Netherlands. It has preserved intact its regular landscape of fields, roads, canals, dikes and settlements, laid out in accordance with the principles of classical and Renaissance planning. -
Frederick De Wit's Atlas
Fiona Melhuish Section Specialname Collections Services Frederick de Wit’s Atlas Special Collections featured item by Fiona Melhuish, UMASCS Librarian. [Atlas] [cartographic material] / [chiefly by Frederick de Wit].[S.l. : s.n., ca. 1670-1707] Item held in RESERVE LARGE FOLIO--131, University of Reading Special Collections. Frederick de Wit was a prolific and skilled map engraver, publisher and seller who became one of the largest publishers in Amsterdam by the end of the seventeenth century. His work included a wide range of cartographic publications, including sea and world atlases, wall maps and ‘town books’, which contained plans and views of Dutch and other European towns and cities. From around 1570 to 1670, the map-makers of Belgium and the Netherlands produced some of the finest maps in the world, notable for their high level of accuracy and craftsmanship, and dominated the market for maps and atlases. The production of maps became centred in the leading ports of Antwerp and Amsterdam, where members of the new wealthy merchant class provided a market for maps, atlases and globes. As R.V. Tooley observes, “for accuracy according to ©University of Reading 2016 Page 1 the knowledge of their time, magnificence of presentation and richness of decoration, the Dutch maps of this period have never been surpassed …” . The seventeenth century Dutch map-makers were highly prolific in their production of maps and atlases, producing vast atlases which sometimes extended to ten or twelve large folio volumes, which were then reissued in multiple editions and translated into several European languages. Frederick De Wit was born in Gouda in about 1629 or 1630, and lived and worked in Amsterdam for much of his life. -
Vladi Collection Sep
Legendary Vladi Collection of Historical Maps 1: Aa, Pieter van der. World and continents (set) USD 24,000 - 30,000 Aa, Pieter van derSet of Five Maps (AA, Pieter Van Der)1713Copperplate engraving; Later colourPrinted area: America: 65.7 x 47.2 cm; 25.9 x 18.6 inEurope: 65.3 x 47 cm; 25.7 x 18.5 inAfrica: 65 x 47.5 cm; 25.6 x 18.7 inAsia: 65.2 x 47 cm; 25.7 x 18.5 inWorld: 62.5 x 49.5 cm; 24.6 x 19.5 inA set of four large maps of the continents - each with a fine, full-colour title cartouche - first published in Van der Aa's atlas, 'Le Nou- veau theatre du monde.' In contrast to other contemporary maps of the world, the double hemisphere map dispenses with the delineation of depictions of a huge sub-continent in the Antarctic and gigantic expansions of North America and Australia. With the exception of a few speculative coastlines, unknown regions are left blank, resulting in the northwestern extension of North America being left blank. By the 16th Century, it was largely common knowledge that California was a peninsula. Yet despite evidence to the contrary, this cartographic error went on to be reproduced many time. Whilst the western and northern coastlines of Australia are visible, the continent is still shown as being connected to New Guinea. The title (towards the bottom-middle) is written in French and states that the map is based on the latest results from the 'Academie des Sciences' - an institution founded by Louis XIV in 1666.
