    RECENT PUBLICATIONS 1984 — 2017 ISSUES 1 — 100 Recent Publications is a compendium of books and articles on cartography and cartographic subjects that is included in almost every issue of The Portolan. It was compiled by the dedi- cated work of Eric Wolf from 1984-2007 and Joel Kovarsky from 2007-2017. The worldwide cartographic community thanks them greatly. Recent Publications is a resource for anyone interested in the subject matter. Given the dates of original publication, some of the materi- als cited may or may not be currently available. The information provided in this document starts with Portolan issue number 100 and pro- gresses to issue number 1 (in backwards order of publication, i.e. most recent first).

  • Die Nüw Welt #381
    Die Nüw Welt #381 Title: Die Nüw Welt [The New Islands]/ Nova Insulae, XVII Nova Tabula Date: 1546 Author: Sebastian Münster Description: Sebastian Münster was a 16th century professor of Hebrew at the University of Basel and a prominent German mathematician, cartographer, and cosmographer. Among his publications was an edition of Ptolemy’s Geography in 1540, followed in 1544 by his Cosmography, the influential first German description of the world. Both works were illustrated by a series of woodcut maps that included this delineation. It was the first printed map devoted to the Western Hemisphere. Its innovative continuous coastline through North, Central and South America emphasized a definite separation of the New World from Asia. The publications were so popular that together they appeared in forty editions, making them best sellers of the 16th century. As a result, this woodcut of America was more widely circulated than any map of the New World at that time. As Surekha Davies summarizes it, prior to the geographical discoveries of the late 15th century, there were several theoretical models for the parts of the globe that had not yet been traversed. One suggested that Africa, Asia and Europe (the region the ancient Greeks called the oikoumene) comprised the three parts of the only major landmass of the world, and were surrounded by water. This model achieved a cartographic form at the end of the twelfth century in the mappamundi or T-O map tradition (see monograph #205). Despite originating in the classical tradition, mappaemundi portrayed human (particularly bi blical) history and Christian theology within a geographical framework.

  • The French and Terra Australis
    The French and Terra Australis MARGARET SANKEY* All those interested in Australian history will be aware of the long European quest for the mythical Terra australis incognita, punctuated by the discovery of coasts of New Holland by the Dutch in the seventeenth century, and not abandoned until the late eighteenth century when Captain James Cook, during his second voyage, finally demonstrated that there was no vast inhabited continent sUlTounding the South Pole. In the English­ speaking world, the history of the Southern Hemisphere has been traditionally dominated by the English achievements. The search for Terra australis is thus seen as culminating in the discovery of the east coast of Australia and the subsequent implantation of colonies along the Australian coastlines. In recent years, the French contIibution to the early exploration and mapping of New Holland is increasingly being recognised. Although most Australians know something of the ill-fated expedition of La Perouse, last heard of when he sailed from Botany Bay in 1788, voyages such as those of D'Entrecasteaux (sent in search of La Perouse in 1791) and Baudin (sent on a scientific voyage to New Holland by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1800) are only now beginning to attract the attention they deserve. The pioneering work done over the last few decades by John Dunmore, Leslie Marchant, Frank Homer, and more recently other scholars such as Edward Duyker, has demonstrated the achievements of the French explorers and revealed the wealth of documentation they accumulated about New Holland during the earliest days of European settlement. * Professor Margaret Sankey, FAHA, holds the McCaughey Chair of French Studies at the University of Sydney.

When descriptive legends do appear on nautical charts, they are generally quite similar from one cartographer to another, from one language to another (Latin, Catalan, Italian), and even across the centuries: there are some legends on early sixteenth-century nautical charts which are very similar indeed to the corresponding legends on late fourteenth-century charts.

  • JAVE LA GRANDE, a PART of TERRA AUSTRALIS? Robert J
    Mapping Our World: Discovery Day, National Library of Australia, 10 November 2013 JAVE LA GRANDE, A PART OF TERRA AUSTRALIS? Robert J. King Did Portuguese navigators discover Australia in the early 16th century? No! As Joachim Pedro de Oliveira Martins, the Portuguese maritime historian who examined this question concluded: "Australia was not visited by any Portuguese in the sixteenth century". If there had been a Portuguese discovery it would have been shown on the world map of Diego Ribeiro, a Portuguese cosmographer in the service of the King of Spain. There is no mystery to the Dieppe maps when they are seen in the context of cartographic history: they expressed the cosmographic concepts of the period. This accounts for the superficial resemblance of their Jave la Grande to Australia. Jave la Grande can be accounted for by developments in cosmographic theory without the necessity of positing unrecorded voyages of discovery by Portuguese or other early 16th century voyagers. The Dieppe cartographers incorporated into their world maps the cosmographic concepts of Oronce Fine, Professor of Mathematics and cosmographer to the King of France. Fine's 1531 map of the world shows a large promontory attached to the continent of TERRA AVSTRALIS and extending northward almost to the Tropic of Capricorn: this promontory is named REGIO PATALIS (“the Region of Patala”). The Dieppe mapmakers identified Jave la Grande with Oronce Fine’s Regio Patalis. Jave la Grande was “the great island called Java” described by Marco Polo. He called it Java Major to differentiate it from Java Minor (Sumatra). Book III of Marco Polo’s Travels described his journey in 1292 by sea from China to India 1 by way of Champa, Locach and Sumatra (Java Minor).

THIS is one of the most interesting subjects that can be studied by the members of a Geographical Society or a Society of Antiquaries. On the Continent this matter of map-making has been considered of great im- portance, and attracted considerable attention. The principal work on the subject is Nordenskiold's Facsimile Atlas, published at Stockholm 1889. This great book is in two volumes, published at £10, 10s. each, the first volume being the Early History of Cartography, with repro- ductions of the most important maps printed in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, and the second a history of Charts and Sailing- directions.

  • The Whalers on the 1546 Desceliers Map, Seen Through the Eyes of Different Beholders
    RESEARCH NOTE Basques? Beothuk? Innu? Inuit? or St. Lawrence Iroquoians? The Whalers on the 1546 Desceliers Map, Seen through the Eyes of Different Beholders CHARLES A. MARTIJN, SELMA BARKHAM, and MICHAEL M. BARKHAM THE PIERRE DESCELIERS mappemonde of 1546 is a large, beautifully coloured world map, decorated with many drawings of Native people as well as Europeans, in different parts of the world.1 One of these scenes depicts whale hunting between northern Newfoundland and southern Labrador, near the eastern entrance to the Strait of Belle Isle (Plate 1). This decorative sketch shows five persons in a small boat harpooning a large cetacean.2 These whalers have been taken by some scholars to be Basques, by others Beothuk, or Inuit or even St. Lawrence Iroquoians.3 The fact that various authorities arrive at four different ethnic identifications is intrigu- ing. This paper provides a detailed description of Desceliers’ whaling scene, re- views the context in which hypotheses about it were formulated, and re-evaluates these interpretations. Although the original Desceliers mappemonde is brightly coloured, reproduc- tions of it have been most commonly printed in black and white. The resulting im- age effectively obscures a variety of details, and thereby reduces the reliability of such photographs for specialized studies. A redrawn and hand-painted copy, in the NEWFOUNDLAND STUDIES 19, 1 (2003) 0823-1737 188 Martijn, Barkham and Barkham form of lithographic facsimile (Plate 2), was published by Jomard (1842-1862). This is the only version of the map available at the National Archives of Canada, Ottawa. Some researchers have used it for colour illustrations, because it is easy to access.4 Use of the Jomard copy introduces a complication, however: the possibil- ity of copying errors or intentional modifications.
