The Wardian Case is a comprehensive study of an unfamiliar and forgotten equipment that entices its readers by detailing Ward’s invention and its implications the world over.

Overall, while the book may be too academic for some readers, its insightful narrative and discussion on the Wardian case’s impact on empire-building is engaging and will interest a broad audience, such as natural and medical historians, horticulturists, scholars of exploration and discovery, and scholars of imperialism and colonialism.","PeriodicalId":40672,"journal":{"name":"Terrae Incognitae-The Journal of the Society for the History of Discoveries","volume":"55 1","pages":"212 - 213"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46230425","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These common points are attribution of animal characteristics and “anomalous” behavior to indigenous peoples of Americas and Siberia, their identification with monstrous races of Classical authors and the Bible, and correlation between the presence of monstrous peoples and fabulous riches, which was the principal motivation to gather all the available information on monsters in distant lands.","PeriodicalId":40672,"journal":{"name":"Terrae Incognitae-The Journal of the Society for the History of Discoveries","volume":"55 1","pages":"106 - 132"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43881710","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite this position, its geography contains an unanswered mystery: “What current-day geography is represented by its large northwest landmass?” It appears to mimic the coast of North America, and many contemporary authors agree. There is a problem with this conclusion. The coast of North America was not explored until years after this map’s publication. This enigma has been debated for centuries. With the reexamination of maps and information that predates this map (some of which were unavailable to earlier historians), the authors disagree with conventional wisdom and conclude that the continental-sized landmass that superficially resembles North America is actually the island of Cuba, as imagined by Christopher Columbus. Although this has been a minority opinion in the past, the current authors present important new information that leaves their conclusion in little doubt.","PeriodicalId":40672,"journal":{"name":"Terrae Incognitae-The Journal of the Society for the History of Discoveries","volume":"55 1","pages":"4 - 64"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44116347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

McIntosh, is entitled “Depicting Cuba, Not North America: Solving the Enigma of America on Early Maps.” Running over 60 pages long and containing more than 300 notes, this is a major piece of scholarship.

(Owing to this change, I encourage authors who are producing long pieces of important scholarship to submit their work to TI .)

Carignano’s original chart—which was destroyed during World War II—has not been the subject of specific analysis. This study highlights the innovation introduced by Carignano: a new relationship between image and text. In his work, Carignano included descriptive texts that help readers understand the image or provide historical and political information. Moreover, he used cities’ heraldic shields as a tool to communicate territories’ political dimensions. Thus, Carignano overcame the dichotomy between image and text and proposed a new cartographic model found in many charts drawn during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. Finally, in the representation of river hydrography, Carignano utilized a graphic style that will only be used by cartographers toward the end of the fifteenth century.","PeriodicalId":40672,"journal":{"name":"Terrae Incognitae-The Journal of the Society for the History of Discoveries","volume":"55 1","pages":"65 - 81"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46539313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
