cultural encounter with other places and people in the world.

practitioners and addresses what they thought they were doing in making
maps and charts of the world.

*This third 'conversation' relates to the changing picture of the world
over time from the perspectives of the early modern European
protagonists and what if any relationship it had to the places and
people they met and to their changing audiences.
