Abstract
ABSTRACT The mapping and re-mapping of language borders in Central Europe in the nineteenth and first half of the twentieth centuries provides a rich example of a historical moment when ethnic cartography was at the height of its influence. This article analyses the process of cartographic representation of the ‘language border’ dividing Czech and German speaking populations in the Czech Lands based on analysis of more than 350 maps published primarily in Prague, Berlin and Vienna between 1810 and 1945. The dataset includes different types of maps, including single-sheet, atlas, newspaper and wall maps produced for academic, administrative, educational and propaganda purposes. The data collected have made it possible to identify the basic milestones, periodization and dynamics of public and private mapping of this border that furthered identification with a particular territory or national agenda.
期刊介绍：
The English-language, fully-refereed, journal Imago Mundi was founded in 1935 and is the only international, interdisciplinary and scholarly journal solely devoted to the study of early maps in all their aspects. Full-length articles, with abstracts in English, French, German and Spanish, deal with the history and interpretation of non-current maps and mapmaking in any part of the world. Shorter articles communicate significant new findings or new opinions. All articles are fully illustrated. Each volume also contains three reference sections that together provide an up-to-date summary of current developments and make Imago Mundi a vital journal of record as well as information and debate: Book Reviews; an extensive and authoritative Bibliography.
