[Termes IGN] rédaction cartographiqueRésumé : (Auteur) Written sources give us hardly any information about the way medieval portolan charts were made. Did cartographers work collectively or individually? Did they use complete charts as prototypes or catalogues of symbols? Was the work shared between a cartographer responsible for the coastlines and an illuminator for the graphical signs? What was the relationship between the different places of production and how did they develop? Due to the lack of written sources, a new method has to be applied to achieve further results. Thus this approach focuses on a comparative analysis of the visual language of the charts with its thousands of signs of different types. Treating the system of graphical signs as a written language, its dictionary and its grammar can be analysed comparatively, revealing a relationship to the cartographer, the production date and the place of production. The results throw a new light on medieval portolan charts, cartographers, cartographic schools and the development of marine cartography up to 1440.
