C’est notre excellente Marion Lecoquierre qui nous signale ce lien avec dans la collection quelques trésors. J’aime aussi beaucoup le titre du projet : « Persuasive maps ». Tout un programme.
PERSUASIVE CARTOGRAPHY
The PJ Mode Collection
This is a collection of “persuasive” cartography: maps intended primarily to influence opinions or beliefs — to send a message — rather than to communicate geographic information. The collection reflects a variety of persuasive tools: allegorical, satirical and pictorial mapping; selective inclusion or exclusion; unusual use of projections, color, graphics and text; and intentional deception. Maps in the collection address a wide range of messages: religious, political, military, commercial, moral and social. Images and descriptions of some 300 maps from the collection are available here at this time, and we hope to add more soon.
