wereld in kaart, Gerard Mercator en de eerste wereldatlas (1512-1594)

Hardback, 325x245mm, 400p, 200 colour illustrations, Dutch (NL) edition . ISBN 978906153124113. De Atlas van Mercator, de beroemdste atlas ter wereld, werd in 1595 in meerdere fascikels gedrukt en was al voor zijn tijdgenoten een sensatie. Gerard Mercator bedacht niet alleen het woord atlas voor een systematische verzameling van kaarten, maar hij ontwierp ook de zogenaamde Mercatorprojectie die vandaag nog altijd wordt gebruikt. Van de Atlas van Mercator zijn nog slechts weinig volledige exemplaren bewaard en daarvan zijn er maar enkele ingekleurd. In dit boek wordt een inleiding gegeven op leven en werk van de grote kosmograaf en worden alle kaarten uit de 'Editio principissima' die in de Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin wordt bewaard, in waarheidsgetrouwe kleuren gereproduceerd. Het werk is een hommage aan de uitvinder van het moderne wereldbeeld wiens vijfhonderste geboortedag in 2012 wordt gevierd.
