CZC-12948Carte Physique et Politique de l'Europe par J. Andriveau et Goujon 1849. Paris rue du Bac Circa 1849 Vue continentale complète Cette magnifique carte de l'Europe, intitulée "Carte Physique et Politique de l'Europe", a été créée par le célèbre cartographe français E. Andriveau-Goujon et publiée vers 1849. Il représente les feuilles occidentales et orientales sous forme de feuilles détachées, mais qui peuvent être assemblées sans problème pour former une vue complète et étendue de l'ensemble du continent européen. La carte a été gravée par P. Flahaut et publiée par l'estimée maison parisienne Chez J. Andriveau-Goujon dans le cadre du célèbre "Atlas de Choix", une compilation des meilleures cartes géographiques anciennes et modernes soigneusement sélectionnées par l'éditeur. Contrecollée sur tissu, et mesurant 102x132cm, cette carte offre une représentation remarquable de l'Europe telle qu'elle était au milieu du 19e siècle. La carte couvre l'ensemble de l'Europe, des côtes occidentales du Portugal et de l'Espagne aux frontières orientales de la Russie et de la mer Caspienne. Elle comprend également l'Islande et certaines parties de l'Afrique du Nord et du Moyen-Orient. Les gravures complexes et précises reflètent les compétences cartographiques avancées de l'époque, présentant une multitude d'informations géographiques et politiques avec clarté et élégance. La carte est magnifiquement colorée à la main, utilisant des teintes douces et pastel pour délimiter les différents pays et régions. Chaque nation est distinctement ombrée, ce qui permet d'identifier facilement les frontières politiques. Les rivières, les chaînes de montagnes et les caractéristiques géographiques importantes sont méticuleusement représentées, mettant en valeur le paysage naturel et politique de l'Europe au milieu du 19e siècle. La carte met également en évidence les principales villes et capitales, démontrant ainsi l'engagement d'Andriveau-Goujon en faveur de l'exactitude scientifique et de l'utilisation pratique. L'un des aspects les plus captivants de cette carte est son cartouche détaillé, situé dans le coin supérieur gauche de la feuille occidentale. Le cartouche porte le titre "Carte Physique et Politique de l'Europe" et est élégamment décoré de fioritures ornementales qui reflètent les normes esthétiques raffinées de l'époque. La présence du nom du graveur, P. Flahaut, atteste du savoir-faire et de la Collaboration nécessaires à la réalisation d'une œuvre cartographique aussi grandiose. Cette carte est un artefact historique de grande valeur, qui reflète les réalités politiques de l'Europe vers 1849. Le milieu du XIXe siècle a été une période de changements territoriaux et politiques importants, et cette carte rend compte de la structure complexe du continent avec une précision remarquable. Son double intérêt pour la géographie physique et politique en fait non seulement une œuvre d'art, mais aussi une ressource éducative inestimable, offrant un aperçu des frontières en constante évolution du continent et de la diversité de ses paysages.

Coppia di carte geografiche tratte dall'Atlante Novissimo di Antonio Zatta, edito tra il 1779 ed il 1785. Mappamondo a proiezione polare, in due carte a fogli distinti, rappresentazione dell'emisfero terrestre settentrionale e meridionale. Nella lunga didascalia esplicativa al margine inferiore, nel redigere la carta e nel far riferimento alle "terre Antartiche, "in cui fin ora la Geografia non ha il minimo fondamento" si è fatto riferimento alle "più probabili congeture adottando il sistema proposto dal Sig.r Robeto de Vaugundy". É interessante come nella carta siano rappresentate le principali montuosità, con tratteggio da destra a sinistra. Tavole tratte dall’Atlante novissimo, illustrato ed accresciuto sulle osservazioni e scoperte fatte dai più celebri e più recenti geografi. Stampato in quattro volumi da Antonio Zatta tra il 1779 ed il 1785. Atlante fra i più belli e completi mai pubblicati in Italia nel XVIII secolo, l'opera più famosa dello Zatta. L’Atlante Novissimo, come si specifica anche nel titolo, è “accresciuto sulle osservazioni scoperte fatte dai più celebri e più recenti geografi”. Tra le novità più significative vi è la comparsa delle nuove isole scoperte nell'Oceano Pacifico da James Cook e la prima carta italiana della Nuova Zelanda. Le illustrazioni furono ideate e disegnate dai suoi collaboratori Giovanni Marco Pitteri, Anton Friedrich Busching, Pietro Antonio Novelli ed incise da Giuliano Zuliani. Il primo tomo dell’atlante è introdotto da un breve saggio di geografia generale dove l’autore definisce in modo sintetico e preciso gli elementi che compongono i reticoli eclittico ed equatoriale usati nelle tavole. Interessante la sezione dove si sofferma a descrivere il fenomeno della precessione degli equinozi e quello della variazione ciclica dell'obliquità dell'eclittica. Acquaforte, stampata su carta vergata coeva, coloritura coeva dei contorni, in buone condizioni. A polar projection World map taken from the Atlante Novissimo, printed in Venice between 1776 and 1785. The map was issued in Zatta's Atlante Novissimo a monumental 4 volume work and one of the last great decorative atlases. The northern plate, is based on De Vaugondy's map; this is a polar projection covering from the pole to the equator. In North America, the mythical Northwest Passage is shown connecting through the Strait of Anian to Hudson Bay. Lanhotan's Longue River is also shown connecting the Mississippi River with the Pacific.The southeren plate, depicts the Antarctic Hemisphere (south) to the equator and Capt. James Cook's route on his first voyage. New Zealand and the Australian East coast are featured in their entirety for the first time. Plates from the Atlante novissimo, illustrato ed accresciuto sulle osservazioni e scoperte fatte dai più celebri e più recenti geografi. Printed in four volumes by Antonio Zatta between 1779 and 1785. Atlas among the most beautiful and complete ever published in Italy in the eighteenth century, the most famous work of Zatta. The Atlante Novissimo, as also specified in the title, is “increased on the observations made by the most famous and most recent geographers”. Among the most significant innovations there is the appearance of the new islands discovered in the Pacific Ocean by James Cook and the first Italian map of New Zealand. The illustrations were designed and drawn by his collaborators Giovanni Marco Pitteri, Anton Friedrich Busching, Pietro Antonio Novelli and engraved by Giuliano Zuliani. The first volume of the atlas is introduced by a brief essay of general geography where the author defines in a concise and precise way the elements that make up the ecliptic and equatorial grids used in the tables. Interesting is the section where he pauses to describe the phenomenon of precession of the equinoxes and the cyclical variation of the obliquity of the ecliptic. Etching, printed on contemporary laid paper, contemporary outline coloring, in good condition.
197941929Warszawa Warsaw: Pan´stw. Wydawn. Naukowe 1979. 1st Edition. Original black printed portfolio 8vo. Portfolio of seven large folding maps on on 4 sheets of heavy paper 3 are double sided 1 is singled sided. Primarily black and white with some color. Text in Polish. <br> Title translates to “Nazi camps in Poland 1939 - 1945. An Encyclopaedic Reference Book: Maps." Collection of 7 maps each 84 cm x 60 cm 33 x 24 inches produced by Jan Laskowski at the Main Commission for the Investigation of Nazi Crimes in Poland. The maps comprise Volume II of the work; Volume I is a heavily illustrated 676-page book of the same title which we offer separately. <br> The Seven maps all present are: <br> - Map 1 Single Sided: Hitlerowskie obozy na ziemiach polskich w latach 1939 - 1945. “Nazi camps in Poland in the years 1939 - 1945â€. Showing: concentration and extermination camps sub-camps of concentration camps extermination centers POW camps more important sub-camps working divisions commandos and temporary POW camps penal labor camps major labor camps prisons transit camps & ghettos. <br> - Map 2A: Getta na ziemiach polskich w okresie okupacji hitlerowskiej w latach 1939 - 1945 “Ghettos in Poland during the Nazi occupation in 1939 - 1945â€. <br> - Map 2B: Hitlerowskie obozy przejsciowe na ziemiach polskich w latach 1939 - 1945 “Nazi transit camps in Poland in 1939-1945â€. <br> - Map 3A: Hitlerowskie wiezienia i areszty na ziemiach polskich w latach 1939 - 1945 “Nazi prisons and arrests in Poland in 1939 - 1945â€. <br> - Map 3B: Hitlerowskie obozy pracy na ziemiach polskich w latach 1939 - 1945 “Nazi labor camps in Poland in the years 1939 - 1945â€. <br> - Map 4A: Hitlerowskie obozy jenieckie na ziemiach polskich w latach 1939 - 1945 “Nazi POW camps in Poland in 1939 - 1945â€. <br> - Map 4B: Hitlerowskie obozy koncentracyjne i osrodki zaglady na ziemiach polskich w latach 1939 - 1945 “Nazi concentration camps and extermination centers in Poland in 1939 - 1945â€. <br> Maps 2A & 2B have been described as a “Terrifying pair of maps showing the locations of German POW and internment camps in Poland during World War II highlighting the widespread locations of these establishments. In some parts of the map the information becomes so dense that three inset maps are shown. This map was designed by Jan Laskowski and printed in 1979 as part of a work on the Nazi extermination machine produced by PWN Warsaw a state-owned research-focused publishing house in Poland.<br> The map on the front is particularly interesting for its depiction of symbols used to classify internees in German camps. The uppermost of these depictions shows the combinations that can be made for different types of prisoners of different levels of importance. The armbands that would have been worn by these prisoners is shown as well as the prison uniforms. Other details are also shown. <br> The map lists hundreds of sites run by Nazi operators throughout the country. These include concentration camps death camps transitional camps and ghettos. The map is divided according to Poland's voivodeships with a key in the lower left. Names of cities too long to spell are also provided in the lower left. <br> This map was produced during a point in Poland's history during which it was actively revisiting the period during the Second World War. Leading social scientists devoted their time to trying to gather all the living as well as the recorded history of the events of the Holocaust and related atrocities before this information vanished. Leading these efforts particularly during the 1960s and 1970s was the Glówna Komisja Scigania Zbrodni przeciwko Narodowi Polskiemu known as the Chief Commission for the Prosecution of Crimes against the Polish Nation. They were active in publishing maps both for domestic educational purposes and for international remembrance and diplomatic efforts regarding the Holocaust. Jan Laskowski was a leading cartographer who produced a number of maps in this field. <br> These maps were produced as part of a series of maps that purported to combine to form an atlas of all of Hitler's crimes in Poland. Many of the large wall maps produced during this period could only show a fraction of the crimes or only the atrocities committed in one region. Thus a series of maps was needed to show all the points necessary which this present work contributes to. <br> Polish Reinterpretations of the Holocaust: Studying the effects of German occupation in Poland is a delicate subject. While it is certain that Poland suffered at least as badly as any other European nation during the Second World War reinterpretations of the Holocaust in the country have also been used to satisfy nationalistic tendencies. It has become evident to Western observers in the last several years that there is a strong nationalist movement in Poland that seeks to place blame for the Holocaust solely on the shoulders of non-Polish actors a movement originally fostered under Soviet rule. This movement has gone so far as to limit freedom of speech criminalizing with a three-year sentence the suggestion that Poland or its citizens in any form participated in the murders committed by Nazis. As such the term ‘Polish concentration camps’ has been deemed unacceptable with the government-approved term being ‘concentration camps on Polish territory.’ <br> All lines of evidence show that this map 2A & 2B was produced using the most accurate and impartial historical sources. The language on the map is simple naming only ‘Hitler's Atrocities’ and there is no evidence of a clear anti-German bias. However it is impossible to separate this map one of the most important productions of the remembrance movement during this period from the social situation in which it was produced. Maps like these can easily be converted into propaganda instruments and today's Polish leaders most of whom grew up during Soviet occupation will have formed their understanding of the Holocaust through maps like these. <br> Soviet Censorship: While the content of the map appears to have been produced free from bias the map still had to go through Soviet censorship. Mentioning prisoner of war camps in which primarily Soviet troops were interned would have been a prerequisite condition upon which the publication of the map rested. Further the lack of mention of any Soviet killings or camps requires no explanation….The map unlike many later maps makes no differentiation between the populations who suffered at the various camps. This represents the Soviet agenda that all nations suffered fought and won equally which sought to limit divisions in this post-identity state†Ruderman 2022. <br> SUBJECTS: World War 1939-1945 -- Prisoners and prisons German. -- Concentration camps -- Poland.
