ABSTRACT
The maps of a Spanish imperial frontier in the Philippines made in the eighteenth-century by the missionary Alejandro Cacho reflect an ethnographic approach that simultaneously reified and undermined Spanish notions of conquest and civilization. While Cacho celebrated mission towns and denigrated unsubjugated settlements, several elements of his maps subverted that message by recognizing the presence of animist communities and the different mobilities taking place at the frontier. The apparent conflict of messages is explained by the context in which the maps were made.

制图民族志:十八世纪西班牙帝国边境的传教地图
摘要
传教士亚历杭德罗·卡乔(Alejandro Cacho)十八世纪在菲律宾绘制的西班牙帝国边界地图反映了一种人种学方法,该方法同时使西班牙的征服和文明观念得以改变和破坏。卡乔(Cacho)庆祝宣教城镇并s毁未征服的定居点时,他的地图上的几个元素通过认清了泛灵论者的存在和边境上发生的各种动员,颠覆了这一信息。消息的明显冲突是通过制作地图的上下文来解释的。
