The most interesting period in the history of the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg was the time of the Eighty Years’ War, of the subsequent economic and cultural boom, and of the decline of the Netherlands at the end of the 17th century. \u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

The new cartobibliography <\/strong>Germania Inferior <\/i><\/strong><\/span>describes four periods of the Low Countries: the origins (1363-1543); the unitary state (1544-1579); the separation of North and South (1580-1648); and the developments up to 1800 and beyond.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

The civil, administrative and economic conditions of each period are briefly and clearly outlined, as are the political and military developments. Together they provide the necessary backgrounds<\/strong> of the aesthetic, technical and commercial advances in the field of cartography.<\/p>\n

The cartography of that time<\/strong> is extensively illuminated in Germania Inferior<\/i>. Cartographers, engravers and publishers, all sorts of collaborations, and their international professional lives (beyond the boundaries of their maps), all receive consideration. The books also show how the mapping technique is spreading, and how many copper engravings eventually change hands and are given a new life, whether or not adapted to new circumstances. Sometimes the original creator gets all the credits, but plagiarism is common, too. Cartography becomes an art form, not only to enrich books, but also to brighten up interior walls.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Also featuring: a separate chapter on the cartographic developments up to 1800 and beyond in France, from the earliest period to the emergence of the Dutch contribution, and to the independence of French cartography.<\/p>\n
