"Pubblicato nella prestigiosa serie della Libreria dello Stato (IPZS), La cartografia di Matteo Ricci è il quinto volume della prevista collana delle Opere di Matteo Ricci, programmate in occasione delle celebrazioni ricciane, a cui sta per seguire il sesto (Mnemotecnica occidentale) presso l’editore Quodlibet. L’opera, frutto di sei anni di lavoro, si avvale della collaborazione di dodici studiosi italiani e stranieri, esperti di storia della cartografia e specialisti di fonti ricciane.

Si divide in cinque parti. L’introduzione generale, in cui l’autore ricostruisce la storia della cartografia ricciana, la formazione cartografica di Ricci, i documenti relativi all’attività cartografica emergenti dall’opera del gesuita maceratese e presenta una interpretazione complessiva del mappamondo ricciano, come “vera espressione del libro del Cielo e della Terra”. “La cartografia – afferma il prof. Mignini - era divenuta, negli intenti di Ricci e nella pratica effettiva, il principale strumento per l’introduzione del Cristianesimo in Cina”.

«Ricci – scrive l’autore nell’introduzione - non nasconde mai che l’enorme diffusione della carta ne fece lo strumento di gran lunga più importante ed efficace nella strategia di “autorizzazione”, ossia di acquisizione di credito e autorità presso il mondo dei confuciani, di sfaldamento dei pregiudizi cinesi nei confronti degli stranieri, e nella dimostrazione della tesi secondo cui in Oriente e in Occidente l’umanità è guidata da una sostanziale unità di “spirito e di principi”, come scrive Li Zhizao nella sua prefazione. Tesi, queste, centrali, nella strategia comunicativa ed evangelizzatrice di Ricci».

La seconda parte del volume è costituita da otto saggi che fanno il punto sulle conoscenze attuali intorno alla cartografia ricciana. Sono di John Day, Francisco Roque de Oliveira, Giorgio Mangani, Maria Antonietta Conti, Huang Shijian e Gong Yingyan tradotti da Paolo De Troia, Angelo Cattaneo, Hiro’o Aoyama e Lim Jongtae.
Il volume presenta una riproduzione dell’originale cinese e traduzione italiana a fronte, con annotazione analitica, del mappamondo 1602, a cura di Huang Ping e Filippo Mignini: una nuova traduzione dal cinese, del mappamondo ricciano, già pubblicato da P. D’Elia nel 1938.

Tre Appendici propongono documenti inediti e rari riguardanti la prima circolazione della cartografia ricciana in Cina, evidenziando il ruolo avuto da alcuni intellettuali cinesi, tra i quali Qu Taisu e Feng Yingjing. Bibliografia, indice dei toponimi e indice dei nomi completano il prestigioso volume."-- Publication announcement.

Cartographic traditions in East Asian maps / Richard A. Pegg.
"The East Asian maps presented in this study are all found in the MacLean Collection"--Introduction.
Includes bibliographical references pages 121-123.
China -- Korea -- Japan.

"Cartographic Traditions in East Asian Maps is focused on a group of maps from the MacLean Collection, one of the world's largest private collections of maps. The maps presented here are in a wide range of medium and formats including screens, wall maps, sheet maps, pocket maps, case maps and map plates. They are eighteenth and nineteenth-century maps from the late Qing dynasty in China, the Joseon dynasty in Korea and the Edo and Meiji periods in Japan illustrating late traditions in the region's history. Each of the three chapters examines one of the three principal regions of East Asia and begins with overall regional maps, then local city maps of Beijing, Edo, Yokohama and Kyoto, respectively, or the eight provinces of Korea. This book provides some of the particular practices and relationships between text and image in East Asian map making that are unique in world cartography. Often particular map making characteristics are not recognized as unique within their own cultural contexts, and so it is only through the process of comparing and contrasting that these qualities emerge. This survey of selected maps proves extremely useful in revealing certain similarities and distinctive differences in the representations of space, both real and imagined, in early modern cartographic traditions of China, Korea and Japan. In addition, as this was a period that Western nations were applying pressure on Asia to open for trade, religion and diplomacy, the introduction of Western cartographic methodologies during the early modern period of East Asia, along with some of the resulting changes, is also discussed"-- Publisher's website.

In 'Companions in Geography' Mario Cams revisits the early 18th century mapping of Qing China, without doubt one of the largest cartographic endeavours of the early modern world. Commonly seen as a Jesuit initiative, the project appears here as the result of a convergence of interests among the French Academy of Sciences, the Jesuit order, and the Kangxi emperor (r. 1661-1722). These connections inspired the gradual integration of European and East Asian scientific practices and led to a period of intense land surveying, executed by large teams of Qing officials and European missionaries. The resulting maps and atlases, all widely circulated across Eurasia, remained the most authoritative cartographic representations of continental East Asia for over a century.

ABSTRACT: This thesis examines the cartographic works of Italian Jesuit Matteo Ricci (1552-1610), who spent his last twenty-seven years in Ming China. In particular, by focusing on Ricci's 1602 map, I examine the broader significance of Ricci's cartographic production to understand how it reflected early modern Chinese-European exchanges. In addition to the 1602 map, I use Ricci's letters to construct a framework for his cartographic involvement. In his writings, Ricci revealed his rationale for mapmaking and explained his collection of information. Only one year after his entry into China, in 1584, Ricci compiled a world map in the Chinese language and featured China towards the center of the map. In 1602, he completed the third revision of his map, adding a significant amount of details to his previous versions. This map was reproduced during and after Ricci's lifetime and has become a celebrated map in cartography. In my thesis, I contend that more than a proselytizing tool to attract the attention of the Chinese elites, Ricci used cartography to organize, preserve and transmit the information he collected during his travel in China. In my thesis, I show that while Ricci established himself as a religious man, under the influence of both his humanist education and his travel, he also became increasingly interested in the natural world that surrounded him. Ricci's letters and map reveal his intellectual development. In particular, Ricci's long tenure in China witnessed two phases of his intellectual transformation. The first phase, from 1582 to 1595, displayed Ricci's humanist education as he learned about China through the writing and translation of ancient Chinese and Western classics. In the second phase, from 1596 to 1610, however, Ricci presented himself as a scientist as he applied his scientific skills to collect information while traveling. In the process, he became increasingly interested in cartography which he came to view as a powerful tool to organize and present information. In time, Ricci's cartographic works became more sophisticated, reflecting both his European education and the Chinese culture.

Summary
This article surveys European information and other extant sources pertaining to Tibet in the early modern period, when the region was still relatively unknown to Europeans and, like Cathay (with which it tended to be associated), was thought to be home to Christian communities. The article is organized into three major themes that focus on discerning, mapping, and exploring Tibet. The first part examines the features of what was for Europeans an uncertain association between Tibet and Cathay. The second part of the study, concerned with mapping, analyses the Jesuit cartographical work in China, partly using Chinese sources, that eventually gave Tibet a location independent from Cathay, even though cartographers in Europe continued to depict Cathay as sharing the spotlight with Tibet. Finally, the third section examines mid seventeenth-century Jesuit explorations in central Asia that provided fresh first-hand information for the likes of Athanasius Kircher in his China Illustrata (1667), one of the main sources of European knowledge about Tibet in those times. This research shows an undecided European attitude towards the region in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries: it was expressed in a double movement that generated new knowledge while embracing an imaginary past in central Asia, “dragging” Tibet with it.

" ... The same urge to impress the Chinese with Western achievements has prompted Ferdinand Verbiest to include in his Kunyu tushuo 坤輿圖說 (Illustrated Explanation of the Entire World, 1674), a whole series of such pictures derived from German, Flemish, and Dutch engravings: the Seven Wonders of the ancient world, exotic animals, a European galleon, and the Roman Collosseum." --Cf.

Kunyu tushuo 坤輿圖說.
By Nan Huairen 南懷仁 (Ferdinand Verbiest).
Two juan. Bamboo paper, bound in one volume, European style. No date or place of publication.

The Latin inscription on the cover reads: “Geographia universalis | a p. Ferdin. Verbiest, S.J.”--[N/B. Jap-Sin ed. only]

There is a table of contents for each juan (juan A, two folios and juan B, ten folios). The preface by Giulio Aleni in juan B (folios 1–2) is taken from the Zhifang waiji 職方外紀 (cf. Jap-Sin II, 20).

Each half folio consists of nine columns with twenty characters in each column. Annotations are given in smaller types and in double lines. The heading of each subject is given on the top margin of the folio. Juan A consists of thirty-one folios (the folios 8, 9, and 10 are misplaced) and juan B of sixty-seven folios. The text contains eighteen illustrations. According to Pfister they come after juan A, but in fact they are found at the end of juan B, which agrees with the description given in the Siku tiyao.

This book is an explanation of the Kunyu quantu 坤輿全圖, a chart of the terrestrial globe, two great hemispheres, each measuring five feet in diameter. It was composed by Verbiest and published in 1674 (Kangxi 13). The Kunyu tushuo was published in the same year.

Cf. Wylie: “About half a century later [i.e., after Giulio Aleni], Ferdinand Verbiest published another small geographical work, entitled 坤輿圖說 K’wan yu t’oô shwo, agreeing in the main with Aleni’s, but containing further information on some points. An abstract of Verbiest’s work has been frequently published, under the title 職方外紀 K’wan yu wae ke, in which the principal part of the geographical matter is omitted, and everything of a strange and marvellous character retained” (pp. 58–59).

This map is based upon the surveys made by the Jesuit Fathers Felix da Rocha 傅作霖 and Joseph d’Espinha 高慎思 between 1756 and 1759. The cartography was completed by Fr. Michel Benoist 蔣友仁 in Beijing. Benoist and his Chinese co-workers prepared the wood-cut edition in 1769, and under their guidance it was engraved on copper plates (銅版) in 1775. Since then, these plates and the original maps have been kept in the Palace unseen by the public until 1924, when the Museum staff discovered a complete set of the original copper plates. This example is one of only one-hundred copies that were run on the original plates.
The map was commissioned by the Qianlong emperor in order to utilize Jesuit expertise in cartography in creating an accurate map of the empire, especially the restive western regions of Xinjiang and Qinghai, as well as the Yunnan-Guizhou region and the Tibetan plateau. Thus the map covers almost the entire Asian continent, and consists of 104 sheets using the traditional Chinese rectangular-grid mapping system modified to suit longitude and latitude. The small booklet map shows the folio sheets with the orignal for comparison. Reference: Needham, Science and Civilisation in China, v. 3, p. 586.
Note on OCLC record: Map consists of 103 sheets, arranged in 13 horizontal strips. Also uses oblique grids and is divided into 13 horizontal strips, each of five degrees of latitude, with 7.8 cm between latitude lines. Original version: Qing Qianlong Neifu yutu.

Regnum Chinae : the printed Western maps of China to 1735 / Marco Caboara.

The first European map of China faintly relied on the copy of a Chinese original, obtained through bribing and espionage; the last covered in this book was the result of the largest land survey ever made until that time. These two and another 125 maps depict, sometimes uniquely, sometimes copying each other, a country whose images were so different that it was hard to understand which to trust.

This study reproduces and describes, for the first time, all the maps of China printed in Europe between 1584 and 1735, unravelling the origin of each individual map, their different printing, issues and publication dates. It also tells, for each, the unique story that made possible these visions from another world, stories marked by scholarly breakthroughs, obsession, missionary zeal, commercial sagacity and greed. China on Copper Plates: The First 150 Years of Chinese Maps in Western Prints (1584-1735).

A summary:
On June 23, 2022, the fourth session of the academic lecture series on "The Weavers of Four-Dimensional Space-Time and Their Creation" on the History of Maps was held in the form of an online seminar at the Kuang-Chi International Scholars Center. Dr. Marco Caboara, an Italian scholar from the Lee Shau Kee Library of Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, gave a lively presentation entitled "China on Copperplate - the First 150 Years of Western Printed Maps of China, 1584-1735". The lecture was conducted in both Chinese and English. Associate Professor Lin Hong from the School of Humanities of Shanghai Normal University served as the moderator and translator. Dr. Yang Xunling, Deputy Director of the Library of Macau University of Science and Technology, served as the main responder. Professor Huang Yijun of Minzu University of China, and Deputy Youth Associate of Fudan University Researcher Ding Yannan, Dr. Catarina Batista and Dr. Ângela Gil from the Library of Macau University of Science and Technology, and Dr. Zheng Man from the Free University of Berlin participated in the discussion. Many domestic and foreign scholars and map enthusiasts listened to the lecture online. The lecture lasted nearly three hours.

"How did Asia come to be represented on European World maps? When and how did Asian Countries adopt a continental system for understanding the world? How did countries with disparate mapping traditions come to share a basic understanding and vision of the globe? This series of essays organized into sections on Jesuit Circuits of Communication and Publication; Jesuit World Maps in Chinese; Reverberations of Matteo Ricci's Maps in East Asia; and Reflections on the Curation of Cartographic Knowledge, go a long way toward answering these questions about the shaping of our modern understandings of the world"-- Provided by publisher.

ABSTRACT: In 1986 the Kendall Whaling Museum (Sharon, Massachusetts) acquired a panel of a Chinese map as an example of the Chinese representation of the monstrous fish (whales) mentioned by Herman Melville in his assessment of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century depictions of whales. Only later was the panel identified as a rare seventeenth-century variation of Matteo Ricci's world map of 1602.
In this paper, the museum's map is compared with other manuscript and printed maps by Matteo Ricci. Discussion centers on the origins of the manuscript copies of Ricci's 1602 map and their inter-relationships. A census of woodblock prints of Ricci's maps (1602, 1603, post- 1644) and of the Chinese manuscript copies is included.
KEYWORDS: World maps; Matteo Ricci,printed and manuscript maps; Jesuits and maps; China, seventeenth century maps.

"The new field of spatial history has been driven by digital mapping tools that can readily show change over time in space. But long before such software became available, mapmakers regularly represented time in sophisticated and nuanced ways in supposedly static maps, and even those maps presented as historical snapshot illustrate the centrality of time to what we think of as primarily a spatial medium. In this collection, an array of today's leading scholars consider how mapmakers in a variety of contexts depicted time in their creations--from Aztecs documenting the founding of Tenochtitlan, to early modern Japanese reconstructing nostalgic landscapes before Western encroachments, to nineteenth-century Americans grappling with the new concept of deep time. The book includes a theoretical salvo and defense of traditional paper maps by William Rankin--himself a distinguished digital mapmaker--and includes more than 100 maps and related visuals, all in full color"-- Provided by publisher.
