We co-editors of Geoscapes have
started a column, "Early Maps," that is shorter papers
on early maps. At this point, we're thinking
in terms of a different author of the column
for each issue. We visualize either "galleries" that
showcase a collection - with illustrations of maps
in the collection - or thought pieces on trends in
early maps. (The problems with security in
map collections and especially early-map collections
we hope will be a collection of articles in a theme issue.)
If this topic interests you, do send in your
column ideas to us; our deadlines for
the next 2 issues to be published are:
February 2006
August 2006
