It analyses the construction, nature, and forms of the putative Great Southern Continent in contemporary British newspapers and magazines, and offers some suggestions for how knowledge from navigators such as James Cook was given credence in the public domain back home. It draws parallels between the ‘new media’ of the eighteenth-century Enlightenment and those of the twenty-first century with their similar debates over who controls public (geographical) information, whom and how to trust, and why.

Enlightened mapping? Maps in the Europe of the enlightenment / Peter Michael Barber in Cartographic journal (the), Vol 57 n° 4 (November 2020)  

Public [article]  inCartographic journal (the) > Vol 57 n° 4 (November 2020) . - pp 379 - 399 Titre : Enlightened mapping? Maps in the Europe of the enlightenment Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Peter Michael Barber, Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Article en page(s) : pp 379 - 399 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Cartographie ancienne [Termes IGN] carte ancienne [Termes IGN] dix-huitième siècle [Termes IGN] dix-septième siècle [Termes IGN] Europe centrale [Termes IGN] Europe occidentale [Termes IGN] histoire de la cartographie Résumé : (auteur) This paper presents an overview of West and Central European mapping between 1650 and 1800. The period was marked by the emergence of distinctive types of mapping, influenced by the spirit of the Enlightenment, particularly its adoption of consciously scientific methods and reliance on direct observation, the acceptance of geography as an academic discipline and a questioning attitude towards previously accepted authority. Such maps were expensive to create and relied on sponsorship by the state and/or academies and, in their published form, on collaboration of both with the map trade. ‘Enlightenment Maps’ are far from being a homogeneous group, however, are of varying quality, and were less prevalent than generally assumed: many traditional types of map continued to be created, published and purchased by an ever-widening public readership.
