Book Description
In the early 19th century, the translation of nature observations into quantified records often intended to convey both epistemologically and aesthetically determined forms of experience. Diverse fields of knowledge such as literature, philosophy, and art as well as natural history, cartography, and microscopy accomplished this demand in a process of mutual exchange and gradual assimilation of ideas and practices. The book investigates the intriguing complexity of this osmotic dynamics, in which various positions on the significance of inner and outer world were continuously exchanged.

Cartography
Author: Matthew H. Edney
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022660568X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 324
Book Description
Over the past four decades, the volumes published in the landmark History of Cartography series have both chronicled and encouraged scholarship about maps and mapping practices across time and space. As the current director of the project that has produced these volumes, Matthew H. Edney has a unique vantage point for understanding what “cartography” has come to mean and include. In this book Edney disavows the term cartography, rejecting the notion that maps represent an undifferentiated category of objects for study. Rather than treating maps as a single, unified group, he argues, scholars need to take a processual approach that examines specific types of maps—sea charts versus thematic maps, for example—in the context of the unique circumstances of their production, circulation, and consumption. To illuminate this bold argument, Edney chronicles precisely how the ideal of cartography that has developed in the West since 1800 has gone astray. By exposing the flaws in this ideal, his book challenges everyone who studies maps and mapping practices to reexamine their approach to the topic. The study of cartography will never be the same.

Book Description
She shows how the Language poets, a group of primarily white experimental writers, restored to the canon what they saw as modernism's true legacy, whose stakes were simultaneously political and epistemological: it produced a poet who was an intellectual and a text that was experimental.

Languages : en
Pages : 102
Book Description
How awesome would it be for children to have some fun away from television, electronic games and tablets, and to learn to appreciate moments of calm in contact with nature? With this "draw and write journal" we invite you to spend family time in contact with nature, even if you live in a city. You do not need lots of materials, or to go to a forest to offer your child a positive experience with nature. You just need pen or pencil and a few minutes playing in the grass, hunting insects, watching the growth of plants or the routine of animals.. very simple things can provide your children with a super positive experience. The Nature Observation Journal along with an adult's guidance can: - make your child value and appreciate the land, air, sun and water, - help children learn about the life cycle, - develop a sense of responsibility, patience and reflection, - and help our emotional balance, since the human being has in essence the need for contact with nature, which is often limited by our lifestyle. We live in a world that can no longer ignore the importance of taking care of the environment, and when we learn to appreciate nature from a young age, we can develop a beautiful relationship with the world around us. With this journal you will record your child's nature observations (which could be as short as 1-2 lines) and will encourage him/her to draw what he/she saw, or represent how he/she felt while in contact with nature. Your written entries and the child drawings can be quite simple, and yet children will learn through them and further develop their fine motor skills. So, how about finding some time to go out with your kids connect with nature, and de-stress a little? Your passport for "calm activities" and wonderful memories exploring the nature is right here!
