Territorial Imaginaries: Beyond the Sovereign Map
This strikingly colorful volume contends that modern mapping has never been sufficient to illustrate the complex reality of territory and political sovereignty, whether past or present. For Territorial Imaginaries, editor Kären Wigen has assembled an impressive slate of experts, spanning disciplines from political science to art history, to contribute perspectives and case studies covering three main themes: mapping before the nation-state, rethinking and critiquing mapping practices, and robust traditions of counter-cartography.
Each contributor proposes alternative ways to think about mapping, and the essays are supported with rich archival documentation. Among the far-reaching case studies are Barbara Mundy’s cartographic history of Indigenous dispossession in the Americas, Peter Bol’s examination of two Chinese maps created five hundred years apart, and Ali Yaycıoğlu’s exploration of tensions between top-down and bottom-up mapping of Habsburg and Ottoman border claims.

領土想像:超越主權地圖
這本色彩鮮豔的書認為現代地圖不足以說明領土和政治主權的複雜現實,無論是過去或現在。對於《領土想像》,編輯卡倫·維根 (Kären Wigen) 召集了一群令人印象深刻的專家,他們來自政治學到藝術史等各個學科,貢獻了涵蓋三個主要主題的觀點和案例研究:民族國家之前的地圖繪製、對地圖繪製實踐的重新思考和批判、以及反製圖的強大傳統。
每位貢獻者都提出了思考地圖繪製的其他方法,論文都附有豐富的檔案文獻作為支持。這些影響深遠的案例研究包括芭芭拉·芒迪 (Barbara Mundy) 對美洲土著人被剝奪土地的製圖歷史、包弼德 (Peter Bol 彼得·博爾) 對相隔五百年的兩張中國地圖的研究,以及阿里·亞伊喬格魯 (Ali Yaycıoğlu) 對哈布斯堡王朝和奧斯曼帝國邊界主張自上而下和自下而上製圖之間緊張關係的探索。
