oapen.abstract.otherlanguageTwenty representations of the globe accompany the late medieval transmission of Benedictine monk Ranulph Higden’s world chronicle, the Polychronicon. This study is the first to analyze all these maps and their codicological and thematic contexts. It asks how and why geography was represented here, explaining the influence that the contemporary practice of memorizing knowledge had on the conceptualization of representations of the world.
