Abstract The history of cartography in the nineteenth-century Russian Empire has been dominated by accounts of the military, academic establishments and elite male intellectuals. This article seeks to provide a corrective to this tendency by highlighting the involvement of women in cartography in the home and print workshops. Drawing on previously unexamined archival sources, the article traces the role of women in the process of making the Ethnological-Geographical Atlas of Present and Prehistoric Latvia (1892), from Martha Bielenstein’s drawing of the manuscript maps in the Bielenstein family home in the Baltic provinces to the female print workers at A. Il’in’s Cartographic Establishment in St. Petersburg. The article builds on recent research on women and cartography to argue that mapmaking was a far more widespread socioeconomic activity in imperial Russia than previously thought and permeated family and working lives. The research findings contribute to our knowledge of the impact of traditional gender roles on cartographic labour and geographies of map production in late imperial Russia.

家庭和印刷厂的地图制作:俄罗斯帝国晚期的妇女和制图

摘要 19 世纪俄罗斯帝国的制图史一直被军事、学术机构和精英男性知识分子的记载所主导。本文旨在通过强调女性在家庭和印刷工作室中参与制图来纠正这一趋势。该文章利用以前未经审查的档案资料,追溯了女性在制作《拉脱维亚现在和史前民族地理地图集》(1892 年)过程中的作用,该地图集源自玛莎·比伦斯坦 (Martha Bielenstein) 在波罗的海诸省比伦斯坦 (Bielenstein) 家中绘制的手稿地图致圣彼得堡 A. Il'in 制图机构的女性印刷工人。这篇文章建立在最近对妇女和制图的研究之上,认为地图制作在俄罗斯帝国是一种比以前认为的更广泛的社会经济活动,并渗透到家庭和工作生活中。研究结果有助于我们了解传统性别角色对俄罗斯帝国晚期制图劳动和地图制作地理的影响。
