| Sumario: | ENG- This study offers a historical analysis tracing the diverse cultural forms that have emerged from cartographic practices within Europe from the Middle Ages to the 1970s. It focuses on the ways in which these practices are intricately linked to the intellectual and sociopolitical contexts of their respective periods, as well as their role in driving epistemological transformations over time. The research not only illustrates how cartographic rationality has shaped European knowledge systems and subjectivities, converted knowledge into scientific discourse, structured the actions of state regulatory bureaucracies, and supported colonial expansion, but also, as this study reveals, how geography, as a foundational concept, and cartography, as both language and method, have intervened in the collective imagination. This intervention has engendered a wide array of cultural forms that, over the centuries, have permeated everyday life and influenced behavioral norms across European societies. These processes developed and solidified during the Renaissance and Enlightenment, spanning from the 15th to the 19th centuries, when conceptions of space were grounded in the idea of absolute space. The same holds true when this notion, along with the absolutist framework that shaped social, economic, and cultural relations, reached its dissolution in the 20th century. The study further examines the cartographic practices of artists from this period, up to the 1970s, who either contested, interrogated, or subverted conventional representations of the world and the logics underpinning them, or repurposed these frameworks to propose alternative logics and models |
