Catalographic Tools and Carto-bio-bibliographic Repertoires: Historical Aspects and Recent Trends The advanced techniques of reproduction and digitization of historical-cartographic documents, and the Web’s ability to include visual imagery, thereby enhancing textual details, potentially exceed the phase of individuation and recognition of the map through the organization and structure of the archival funds. These scenarios, and the availability of some basic information through the visualization of the digital reproduction, make necessary to rethink and adapt - or perhaps overcome? - the analytical cataloging of the extrinsic data useful for the description of the maps and the tools necessary to provide access to them. New rules are useful to describe and catalogue early cartographic resources related to cartobibliographical works. However, it seems necessary to reaffirm the consideration that historical maps should be treated as a source far from a self-explaining with its own language, with its decoding rules and with its specific reading and interpretation modalities. Paradoxically, such requests, rather than making obsolete the theme of cartographic cataloging offer rather new reflections, connecting it to the other, equally imperative, inherent the drafting of repertoire cartobibliographic.

Abstract
Catalographic Tools and Carto-bio-bibliographic Repertoires: Historical Aspects and Recent Trends The advanced techniques of reproduction and digitization of historical-cartographic documents, and the Web’s ability to include visual imagery, thereby enhancing textual details, potentially exceed the phase of individuation and recognition of the map through the organization and structure of the archival funds. These scenarios, and the availability of some basic information through the visualization of the digital reproduction, make necessary to rethink and adapt - or perhaps overcome? - the analytical cataloging of the extrinsic data useful for the description of the maps and the tools necessary to provide access to them. New rules are useful to describe and catalogue early cartographic resources related to cartobibliographical works. However, it seems necessary to reaffirm the consideration that historical maps should be treated as a source far from a self-explaining with its own language, with its decoding rules and with its specific reading and interpretation modalities. Paradoxically, such requests, rather than making obsolete the theme of cartographic cataloging offer rather new reflections, connecting it to the other, equally imperative, inherent the drafting of repertoire cartobibliographic.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
