    the hollstein journal december 2016 It is my great pleasure to write these first few lines introducing our first e-newsletter. Via this medium, which we aim to publish at least twice a year, we will keep you informed about various Hollstein projects: more in depth information about some of our current projects, new research, publication schedules, as well as other activities connected to Dutch and Flemish and German prints before 1700. In this first issue you will be introduced by Ad Stijnman to Johannes Teyler and the à la poupée printing technique. These volumes to be published in our series The New Hollstein Dutch & Flemish Etchings, Engravings and Woodcuts, 1450-1700 will be the first ever to be in full colour. Some of our previous volumes on the oeuvres of Hendrick Goltzius and Frans Floris already included a few colour plates but Teyler’s substantial oeuvre covers every colour of the rainbow. Marjolein Leesberg will discuss Gerard and Cornelis de Jode. Her research on the De Jode dynasty resulted in such a wealth of new material that we decided to divide The New Hollstein Dutch & Flemish volumes into two separate publications. The first will cover Gerard and Cornelis de Jode and the second following comprises the subsequent family members Pieter de Jode I, Pieter de Jode II, and Arnold de Jode. With the end of the year quickly approaching, I, on behalf of the whole team, would like to take the opportunity to wish you a Merry Christmas and a prosperous 2017. Frits Garritsen Director johannes teyler and dutch colour printing 1685-1710 The group of prints compiled for the forthcoming The à la poupée process had been used since 1457,2 New Hollstein volumes concern what are known as usually inking copper plates but also woodblocks in ‘Teyler prints’.

The central projection is surrounded by ten wind heads, cherubic faces blowing currents across the globe. In the lower left is a celestial sphere, while a terrestrial sphere, focused on the Atlantic and Africa, sits in the lower right corner. The etchers names, Joannes and Lucas Van Doetecum, are in the top left, near a wind head in the corner. The map provides a fine depiction of the newly separate North America, no longer shown attached to Asia. Japan, or Giapan as it is included here, is closely sandwiched between California and Asia. There is little speculation as to the far north of North America. South America is well-shaped, with its southernmost point separated from a large unknown continent by the Straits of Magellan. Tierra del Fuego is but one peninsula in the vast landmass to the south which, thanks to the cordiform projection, seems to hug half the world. The Pacific Ocean is peppered with early Spanish discoveries, while the East Indies includes the main islands already contacted for spice trade.

  • 432 1 Americæa Pars Borealis, Florida
    #432 Americæa Pars Borealis, Florida, Baccalaos, Canada, Corterealis Description: Cornelis de Jode’s map of North America is preceded only by the separately issued Forlani/Zaltieri map of 1565 (#391), and an extremely rare separately issued map. Together with a smaller western sheet, Quivirae, this was the first folio sized atlas map to focus on North America. The plates were purchased by J.B. Vrients who kept de Jode’s work out of publication in favor of Ortelius’ Theatrum. The French, like the British, resented the exclusive Iberian franchise on new lands dictated by the papal demarcation line, and tried to stake out claims of their own in what is now the United States. They targeted the region of northern Florida, officially in the Spanish sphere of influence. Although it had been abandoned by Spain as a region of serious exploration by a decree of Philip II in 1561, French presence there was nonetheless viewed as trespassing. The experience of France’s first attempt to colonize northern Florida, in 1562, is sadly parallel to what would happen to the British in Roanoke two decades later. Jean Ribault and Rene Goulaine de Laudonniere commanded the mission, which crossed the Atlantic directly from the French port of Havre de Grace to North America, rather than sailing the more common route through the Spanish Main and north. De Jode has written Laudnner hue. appulit and Ribaldus hue, at their landfall on the Florida peninsula. From there, they reconnoitered north, reaching a large river they named Mai because they found it on the first day of May.

  • The New World Mythology in Italian Epic Poetry: 1492-1650
    THE NEW WORLD MYTHOLOGY IN ITALIAN EPIC POETRY: 1492-1650 by CARLA ALOÈ A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Italian Studies School of Languages, Cultures, Art History and Music College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham September 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT My thesis explores the construction of the New World mythology as it appears in early modern Italian epic poems. It focuses on how Italian writers engage with and contribute to this process of myth-creation; how the newly created mythology relates to the political, social and cultural context of the time; and investigates extent to which it was affected by the personal agendas of the poets. By analysing three New World myths (Brazilian Amazons, Patagonian giants and Canadian pygmies), it provides insights into the perception that Italians had of the newly discovered lands in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries, as well as providing a greater understanding of the role that early modern Italy had in the ‘invention’ of the Americas.

The map shows England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, part of the French coast, and outlying islands. Oriented with west at the top, the isles are filled with county names, settlements, forests, rivers, and lakes. In the finely-stippled waters surrounding the islands are several ships in full sail. The title of the map, “a new description of England, Scotland, and Hibernia [Ireland],” is in a strapwork cartouche in the upper right corner of the map. A large paragraph of text is in another cartouche in the lower right corner. It contains information, in Latin, about the geographical features and cities including Oxford and London. De Jode and the first modern atlases This map appeared in De Jode's Speculum Orbis Terrarum, the second general atlas of the world, after Ortelius. In Antwerp in 1570, Ortelius published the first modern atlas; that is, a set of uniform maps with supporting text gathered in book form. Previously, there were other bound map collections, specifically, the Italian Lafreri atlases, but these were sets of maps—not necessarily uniform—selected and bound together on demand. The first edition of Gerard De Jode’s atlas, Speculum orbis terrae, was published in Antwerp in 1578.

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.

Das 17 gravuras decorativas presentes nesse mapa, as cinco mais importantes retratam composições envolvendo habi- tantes de diferentes partes do mundo, enquanto as demais mos- tram navios europeus, monstros e animais marinhos. Embora haja uma clara influência das “Grand Voyages” dos De Bry, essas ima- gens estão baseadas em várias outras publicações dos séculos XVI e XVII, tais como a “Cosmographie Universelle” de André Thevet e o relato de Dionyse Settle sobre a viagem do capitão Martin Fro- bischer. Apesar de sua complexidade, a “America” talvez mereça ser entendida como um tributo à expansão das forças reformistas em sua feroz disputa pelas fabulosas riquezas do além-mar.

(1st edition!) Stock#: 27290 Map Maker: de Jode Date: 1593 Place: Antwerp Color: Uncolored Condition: VG Size: 18 x 14 inches Price: SOLD Description: Nice example of the first edition of De Jode's map of Prussia, from the 1593 edition of De Jode's atlas. The present map is an entirely new addition to the second De Jode atlas, the Speculum Orbis Terrae (1593). The geography is based on Caspar Henneberger's groundbreaking 1576 woodcut map of Prussia. The map extends from Gdansk (Danzig) in the west to Lithuania in the east, and De Jode employs an especially vibrant engraving style to express northeastern Poland's numerous forests, lakes and rivers. Gerard De Jode (1521-91) created some of the most geographically progressive and beautifully engraved maps of the 16th-century. Born in Nijmegen, he made his way to the great commercial center of Antwerp, where his joined the Guild of St. Luke in 1547. In 1564, he printed Abraham Ortelius' famous eight-sheet cordiform World map. Inspired by the success of Ortelius' Theatrum Orbis Terrarum (1570), De Jode set out to produce his own atlas. However, Ortelius used his extensive political connections to ensure that De Jode's efforts were obstructed, for his grant of a royal publishing privilege was delayed for 5 years. Finally, in 1578, De Jode published his magnificent 2-volume atlas, the Speculm Orbis Terrarum.

    revista do ieb n 46 p. 81-122 fev 2008 A “America” de Jodocus Hondius (1563-1612): um estudo das fontes iconográficas Dante Martins Teixeira1 e 2 Resumo Entre os quarenta novos mapas compostos por Jodocus Hondius para a edição de 1606 do famoso “Atlas” de Mercator- Hondius, a “America” desperta particular interesse por ser consi- derada uma das mais belas cartas jamais impressas sobre o Novo Mundo. Das 17 gravuras decorativas presentes nesse mapa, as cinco mais importantes retratam composições envolvendo habi- tantes de diferentes partes do mundo, enquanto as demais mos- tram navios europeus, monstros e animais marinhos. Embora haja uma clara influência das “Grand Voyages” dos De Bry, essas ima- gens estão baseadas em várias outras publicações dos séculos XVI e XVII, tais como a “Cosmographie Universelle” de André Thevet e o relato de Dionyse Settle sobre a viagem do capitão Martin Fro- bischer. Apesar de sua complexidade, a “America” talvez mereça ser entendida como um tributo à expansão das forças reformistas em sua feroz disputa pelas fabulosas riquezas do além-mar.
