Zustand: Wie neu. XIII, 372 p., ill. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Overall very good and clean. - THE SELF-MADE MAP argues that during the Renaissance in France a new cartographic impulse affected both the graphic and imaginary forms of literature. In this wide-ranging and fascinating work, Tom Conley demonstrates that as maps were plotted during this period, a new sense of self emerged, one defined in part by the relationship of the self to space. Conley traces the explosion of interest in mapmaking that occurred with the discovery of the New World, and discusses the commensurate rise of what he defines as cartographic writingwriting that holds, penetrates, delineates, and explores space. Considering the works of such writers as Rabelais, Montaigne, and Descartes, Conley provides a "navigation through the printed page, revealing the emerging values of Renaissance France. In his examination of the placing of words, letters, and graphic elements in books, he exposes the playful and sometimes enigmatic relation between spatial organization and text. Conley also exposes the ideological exercise inherent in mapmaking, arguing that Renaissance cartography is inseparably bound up with the politics of the era. He undertakes close readings of maps and illustrations, discussing the necessity of viewing Renaissance maps in the context of their typographic layout, graphic reproduction, and literary and ideological import. - TOM CONLEY is professor of French at Harvard University. Among his other books are Film Hieroglyphs (published by the University of Minnesota Press) and The Graphic Unconscious in Early Modern French Writing. He also translated The Fold: Leibniz and the Baroque by Gilles Deleuze and The Year of Passages by Reda Bensmaia, both published by the University of Minnesota Press.
