摘要

这篇文章探讨了历史地理学,以及更广泛的地图研究,是如何陷入制图例外论的错觉之中的。地图学者可能已经成功地拒绝了规范性地图,但他们并没有消除对地图作为一种独特而特殊的文本形式的规范性承诺。通过追踪地图如何移动和在哪里停下来,在精确的空间话语中连接生产者和消费者,我们可以看到它们是如何与其他形式的文本完全整合的,以及它们在被翻译成其他话语时是如何被重新解释的。通过暗示,没有普遍的地图本质。历史地理学家很有能力引领测绘过程的研究,其中地图是社会生活不可或缺的普通文本。

Historical geography and the cartographic illusion of exceptionalism
This essay explores how historical geography, and map studies more generally, remain caught within the illusion of cartographic exceptionalism. Map scholars might have successfully rejected the normative map, but they have not dispelled the normative commitment to maps as a distinct and special form of text. By tracing how maps move and where they come to rest, connecting producers and consumers within precise spatial discourses, we can see how they are fully integrated with other forms of text and how they are interpreted anew when translated into other discourses. By implication, there is no universal essence of mapness. Historical geographers are well-positioned to lead the way to the study of mapping processes, in which maps stand as unexceptional texts that are integral to social life.
