Description

Note: The item is located abroad. Please note that delivery conditions, shipping times, and/or the purchase process may differ.
Serves as an extensive reference book for map collectors, amateur astronomers, and historians of astronomy and art. Written with non-technical language accessible to anybody who wants to learn more about celestial mapping and astronomical history. Contains appendices with numerous resources for map collectors, such as contact information for dealers and auction houses, a supplementary reference catalog of important people in cartography, indices of major constellation atlases, and a thorough glossary. Features two new groundbreaking chapters, one on celestial pictorial maps for the collector, and the other on the use of celestial images in art for the amateur astronomer and art history buff

Explore the beauty and awe of the heavens through the rich celestial prints and star atlases offered in this third edition book. The author traces the development of celestial cartography from ancient to modern times, describes the relationships between different star maps and atlases, and relates these notions to our changing ideas about humanity’s place in the universe. Also covered in this book are more contemporary cosmological ideas, constellation representations, and cartographic advances.
The text is enriched with 226 images (141 in color) from actual, antiquarian celestial books and atlases, each one with an explanation of unique astronomical and cartographic features. This never-before-available hardcover edition includes two new chapters on pictorial style maps and celestial images in art, as well over 50 new images. Additionally, the color plates are now incorporated directly into the text, providing readers with a vibrant, immersive look into the history of star maps.
