Mapping in the Enlightenment
This Study Group will be online.
Study group leader Mary Pedley, Assistant Curator of Maps at the Clements Library, will explore how maps aided the search for answers to big scientific questions, how innovative mapping practices changed the look of maps, and how the general public participated in the creation and consumption of maps during the European Enlightenment (ca 1650-1800).
Mary is co-editor with Matthew Edney of The History of Cartography, Volume 4: Cartography in the European Enlightenment (University of Chicago Press, 2019).
This study group will meet Thursday February 18. Preregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the study group will be e-mailed prior to the first session.
