Get in touch with us if you need additional information on this manuscript. Thanks!International social justice movements and the debates that ensued prompted us to start considering the contents of our website from a critical point of view. This has led us to acknowledge that most of the texts in our database are Western-centered. We have asked the authors of our content to be aware of the underlying racial and cultural bias in many scholarly sources, and to try to keep in mind multiple points of view while describing the manuscripts. We also recognize that this is yet a small, first step towards fighting inequality.
If you notice any trace of racist or unjust narratives in our communications, please help us be part of the change by letting us know.
Ptolemaei Tabulae Cosmographicae
Rome/Turin: De Agostini/UTET, 2001
- Commentary (Italian) by Bortolami, Sante; Orpianesi, Fabio; Tomain, Nada
- Limited Edition: 2999 copies
- Full-size color reproduction of the entire original document, Ptolemaei Tabulae Cosmographicae: the facsimile attempts to replicate the look-and-feel and physical features of the original document; pages are trimmed according to the original format; the binding might not be consistent with the current document binding.
The edition is based on an incunabulum from the Historical Library of the Universidad Complutense of Madrid, chosen for its excellent craftsmanship and preservation. To better match the original, several pages were replaced: the first printed page, which was irreparably damaged, is shown as found; pages A2, A3, and A4, as well as the "Prima Europe" page and the last printed page with the printer’s seal, were sourced from another incunabulum at the Royal Academy of History in Madrid. Additionally, the initial capital of the page starting with "Seconda Europe" was taken from a different incunabulum at the Universidad Complutense.
