本文将1560年左右在果阿和威尼斯绘制的里海地区地图与其他制图中心如里斯本、塞维利亚和安特卫普的地图进行了比较。它探讨了科学，文化，技术和商业逻辑，导致里海及其周边地区在同一时间的不同地图制作中心的地图制作截然不同。它提出了关于文艺复兴时期海洋和陆地制图之间的对比以及与这些制图模式相关的制图语言的问题。果阿、里斯本和塞维利亚的海洋制图师的习惯被认为是深刻的，而意大利，特别是威尼斯的制图师的习惯，他们的目标是整合所有可用的数据，作为对托勒密评论的一部分，and produced制作highly高度desirable可取printed印刷maps地图for a growing增长consumer消费audience观众.因此，本文提倡一种比较的方法来地图，并批评的假设，知识“流动”之间的区域。相反，它提出了一个知识生产和消费的“（不）连接的历史”，以揭示地图印刷革命的起源。
This article compares the cartographical representationsof the Caspian region produced around 1560 in Goa and Venice, with references toother centers of mapmaking such as Lisbon, Seville, and Antwerp. It explores thescientific, cultural, technical, and commercial logics that led to profoundlydissimilar cartographies of the Caspian and its surroundings in differentcenters of map production around the same time. It asks questions about thecontrasts between maritime and terrestrial cartography in the Renaissance, andthe cartographical languages associated with each of these cartographical modes.The habitus of maritime cartographers in Goa, Lisbon, and Seville differedprofoundly, it is argued, from that of mapmakers in Italy, and particularlyVenice, who aimed for an integration of all available data as part of atradition of commenting on Ptolemy, and produced highly desirable printed mapsfor a growing consumer audience. The article thus advocates a comparativeapproach to maps, and critiques the assumption that knowledge “flows” betweenregions. It proposes instead a “(dis)connected history” of knowledge productionand consumption to throw new light on the origins of the cartographical printingrevolution.
