description This interdisciplinary study explores the controversially discussed question of whether and how geographical and cultural knowledge from the Arab-Islamic world was utilised by European mapmakers. The contextual analysis of cartographic representations – from diagrammatic maps of the three known continents and the seven climes to detailed world maps and Portolan charts – as well as accompanying source texts from the 10th to the beginning of the 15th century demonstrates the complex dynamics of the transmission of knowledge, which was neither linear nor continuous. Following the spatial turn, maps are understood as hybrid, socio-cultural cultural sources that conceptualise space and transmit cultural world views, which were used to pursue a variety of interests.

Die interdisziplinäre Studie geht der kontrovers diskutierten Frage nach, ob und wie geografisches und kulturelles Wissen aus dem arabisch-islamischen Kulturraum von europäischen Kartenmachern genutzt wurde. Die kontextuelle Analyse kartografischer Repräsentationen – von diagrammatischen TO- und Klimazonenkarten bis zu detaillierten Welt- und Portolankarten – sowie begleitender Quellentexte vom 10. bis zum Beginn des 15. Jahrhunderts zeigt die komplexe Dynamik der Wissensvermittlung, die weder linear noch durchgängig verlief. Dem spatial turn folgend, werden Karten als hybride, soziokulturelle Zeugnisse zur Konzipierung von Räumen und Weltvorstellungen verstanden, mit denen vielfältige Interessen verfolgt wurden. 2025-08-12T05:06:05Z 2025-08-12T05:06:05Z 2025-08-11T10:20:32Z 2025 book https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/105371 9783968221823 https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/165009 ger Das Mittelalter.
