ABSTRACT

In the middle of the sixteenth century, in Mechelen, Jacob van Deventer began an enterprise of epic proportions: to draw maps of all the towns and cities in the Low Countries and bring them together in an atlas. Made at the request of Philip II of Spain, these maps are generally considered to have been intended as military documents. A close analysis of the strategies of representation developed by van Deventer for his maps suggests that his mapping should be read as a vision of the Low Countries that was influenced more by political than by military interests.

创造菲利普二世的愿景：雅各布·范·德文特（1558–1575）的城市地图中的城市景观和城市景观

摘要

十六世纪中叶，雅各布·范·德文特（Jacob van Deventer）在梅赫伦（Mechelen）开创了史诗般的规模：绘制低地国家所有城镇的地图，并将它们组合成地图集。这些地图是应西班牙菲利普二世的要求制作的，通常被认为是军事文件。对范德文特（van Deventer）为他的地图制定的代表策略进行的仔细分析表明，他的地图绘制应被视为对低地国家的一种设想，该低地国家更多地受到政治而非军事利益的影响。
