ANÁLISIS ETNO-CARTOGRÁFICO DE CUATRO MAPAS MEDIEVALES
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
The article discusses the convergence of Ethnography, Cartography and Geography in the following medieval maps: “Certificado de Nacimiento de América” (1507), “Tabula novarum insularum” (1550), “America Sive Novus Orbis respectu Europaeroum inferior Globi Terrestris Pars” (1596) y “America Nova Tabula” 1665), establishing relationships between barbarism and civilization iconographic, as this dichotomy became the epistemological framework of interpretation and reading of the American territories found after Europe’s arrival in 1492. The main objective is to determine which parameters were fed the cartographic production of maps selected from the thorough analysis of historical paradigms related to Eurocentrism, the power relations between Center and Periphery, and mainly the ethnographic iconographic implications of the code built into the maps, using as support another kind of contemporaneous documents
