Gerhard Mercator (15121594) was the most important cartographer and globemaker of the 16th century. He is particularly remembered for his publication Atlas sive Cosmographicae Meditationes de Fabrica Mundi et Fabricati Figura (1595), and for his specific cylindrical map projection (1569), which is still used widely today. This book brings together the latest research on Mercator with a view to his sources and his relationships with other scientific disciplines and cartographers of his time, as well as his role in the wider worlds of Renaissance cartography and Humanism.

Recenzijos

'[ T]he thirteen articles in the book are an invaluable resource for academic researchers and map aficionados focused on Mercator and 16th century in general as well as the cartographer of the Hapsburg Empire.'Edward KirschThe Portolan, 95 (2016)'All in all, the book shows some interesting and a few trail-blazing essays.'Professor Ferjan OrmelingUtrecht UniversityMitteilungen der Österreichischen Geographischen Gesellschaft, 157 (2015)'The main merit of this volume is the placement in a European context of Mercator's creation and the appearance of the complex connections between the cartographic achievements in the Renaissance and Humanism era.'Andrei NacuAnuarul Institutului de Cercetri Socio-Umane Sibiu, 24 (2017)
