Book Chapter
Europe Looks East
2012
Overview
This chapter examines the cartographic emergence of Korea in early European maps. This production of global knowledge was not so much a cartographic imposition as a cartographic encounter between Europe and East Asia. An improved understanding of Korea for Europeans and the discovery of Europe for Koreans became part of a new global perspective. The chapter also looks at how Korean mapmakers embodied, reflected, and even contested Western depictions.
