AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Charming illustrated edition of this cartographic and descriptive synthesis of the world as it appeared at the end of the 19th century, from both a scientific, educational, and imperial perspective.

Inheriting the French geographical tradition, Cortambert gathers a series of detailed maps — political, physical, economic — accompanied by explanatory notices on the states, peoples, climates, productions, and communication networks.

This volume thus embodies a geography of modernity, both descriptive and normative, where the global space is ordered, measured, and taught.
