Abstract:
This talk will deal with the rise of local and regional mapping in England, Italy and France at the end of the Middle Ages, in a comparative perspective. Contrary to to the belief that few if any large-scale maps were produced in Europe before the modern period, hundreds of them were produced in Europe during the 14th and 15th centuries. The diversity of their formal characteristics and uses are also astonishing. After attempting to establish a typology of the map production in the three countries considered, the talk will focus on the context in which these maps emerged, in order to better understand this important turning-point in the history of cartography.
Dr. Juliette Dumasy-Rabineau is Associate Professor of Medieval History at the University of Orléans, France. She is also supervising the action of science communication in her university.
Her research deals with the relationship between societies and their space during the medieval period. She is particularly interested in local and regional maps in Western Europe (England, Italy and France), as well as in the way territories were administered by sovereign and seigniorial authorities and communities of inhabitants. She also considers these questions from the angle of the history of representations, and the history of environment and landscapes.
She was co-curator of the exhibition Quand les artistes dessinaient les cartes. Vues et figures de l’espace français, Moyen Âge et Renaissance, at the Archives Nationales in Paris in 2019. She published, with Camille Serchuk and Emmanuelle Vagnon, Towards a History of Local Maps in Medieval and Early Modern Europe, Paris, Le Passage, 2022.
She recently achieved her habilitation thesis (a French degree for supervising ph-D thesis) on the rise of local and regional maps in England, Italy and France between the 12th and the 15th centuries.
