Abstract

ABSTRACT Based on archival research, this article analyses the publishing history of the map of Minas Gerais, Brazil, in the Petermanns Mitteilungen journal. Commissioned by the provincial government between 1836 and 1855, this map was drawn up by two German army officers who had emigrated to Brazil. In 1859 the Swiss naturalist Johann Jakob von Tschudi acted as an intermediary between the Brazilian authorities and the German publishing house Perthes in Gotha. The editorial process reflects both the transatlantic circulation of maps and geographical knowledge and the creation of a global community of map readers and users in the German-speaking context in the mid-nineteenth century.

欧鲁普雷图与哥达之间的地图学翻译，约1850 - 1860年

摘要:本文在文献研究的基础上，分析了《彼得曼斯·米特伦根》杂志刊登巴西米纳斯吉拉斯州地图的历史。1836年至1855年间，省政府委托两名移居巴西的德国军官绘制了这幅地图。1859年，瑞士博物学家约翰·雅各布·冯·楚迪(Johann Jakob von Tschudi)在巴西当局和哥达的德国Perthes出版社之间充当了中间人。编辑过程既反映了地图和地理知识的跨大西洋流通，也反映了19世纪中期德语背景下全球地图读者和用户社区的建立。
