Opis:
W tym roku mija czterdzieści lat od ukazania się Atlasu Świata Służby Topograficznej Wojska Polskiego. Atlas, będący jednym z największych osiągnięć polskiej kartografii geograficznej, z przyczyn politycznych nie znalazł w kraju pełnej oceny i należnego mu uznania. Jego wersja angielskojęzyczna Pergamon World Atlas z powodzeniem propagowała polską kartografię w krajach zachodnich, stawiając go w rzędzie największych i najlepszych atlasów świata. Nigdy nie ukazało się kolejne wydanie Atlasu, nigdy też nie wyrażono Autorom należnego uznania i nie dano im stosownej satysfakcji. Dlatego przypominamy środowisku kartograficznemu szczególne okoliczności wiążące się z jego wydaniem i miejsce, jakie wyznaczał polskiej kartografii na arenie międzynarodowej.
At the turn of the 1960s the Polish Army Topographical Service initiated the edition of a great atlas of the world. It was to meet the demand for a publication unavailable since the 1904 the Great Atlas of the World by A. Nałkowski and A. Świętochowski. The publication lost its originally military character and became available to the general public. Atlas Świata (World Atlas) of the Polish Army Topographical Service was published in 1960-1968 in installments, in 242,000 copies, 205,000 of which were in Polish and 37,000 in English, ordered by the English Pergamon Press publishing house. The atlas was printed in 40x32 format; on 524 pages, including 382 map pages with an index, a pronunciation guide and a glossary of geographical names and terms. At that time nobody expected the fate awaiting the publication, which was one of the most significant in the history of Polish cartography. We recall this work to preserve the memory of the unprecedented effort of Polish military cartographers, successors of the Polish pre-war school of cartography. The first issues ofthe atlas were received with great interest and positive reviews. Later it became a victim of political unrest. After the Israeli-Arab war of 1967 Poland broke diplomatic relations with Israel, while the events of March 1968 in Poland demonstrated anti-Semitic sentiments of the Polish ruling elite. In spring '68 the editing team was accused of falsely showing Jerusalem as lsrael's capital, which disqualified the Atlas as a serious, credible scientific publication and a reliable source of information. Despite the witch-hunt the Atlas was completed, with an additional map of Cyprus, Lebanon and Israel (attached to the last issue) showing Tel Aviv as the capital of Israel. However the following autumn the publishing team was disbanded and its members scattered. The publication itself became a 'rotten apple' of Polish cartography; usually ignored for fear of political repressions. The Atlas got only two foreign reviews of its English Pergamon Press Atlas version: by G.R.Crome in "Geographical Magazine" (1968), and R.E Dahlberg in "The Canadian Cartographer" (1969). Significantly, it was regarded as one of the leading atlases of the time, along with The Times Atlas, Atlas Mira and Atlantę Internazionale. The Polish atlas is actually superior due to its rich thematic contents. The ostracism surrounding the Atlas lasted until early 1980s, when it had already been too late for the second edition. The materials became outdated, dispersed or lost, the publishing team broke up. Thus the World Atlas became an example of 'the most spectacular example of material and intellectual waste in the history of world cartography' (W. Grygorenko 1981). In 2003 an MA. thesis on the history and value of the Atlas was prepared at Warsaw University Department of Geography and Regional Studies to honor the memory of this effort of Polish military cartography (E. Florjańska 2003). The Atlas had to find its place without the help of 'experts'. Daily use verified its value. It became one of the most popular sources of geographic information. 40 years after its publication reviewing it seems pointless. However the analysis of its structure in comparison to other leading atlases shows the state of Polish cartography in the World in 1960s.

The aim of the article is to present the printed small scale maps of the territory of Poland and Lithuania in the 16th century against the background of the European cartography of that time. Such presentation should help revise and complete the historical image of Poland. For source analysis the following research methods were applied: linguistic analysis (synoptic charts), accuracy analysis (distortion charts) and con-tents analysis (comparison of errors - mainly in water network). Publication of the printed maps of Northern and Southern Sarmatia, covering Eastern Europe, and then the general map of Poland in 1526 were the milestones in the development of cartography of Poland and Lithuania. These maps, authored by Bernard Wapowski, were not distributed in Europe on a mass scale, however they had significant, though indirect influence on how the territory of Poland were presented. General picture of the terrains between Oder and Dnieper, the Baltic and the Carpathians, created by Bernard Wapowski, was later popularized in Western Europe by Gerard Mercator, the outstanding cartographer and publisher. The influence of Wapowski's maps can be seen on Mercator's globe of 1541, and later on his great map of Europe of 1554. The presentation of the Kingdom of Poland and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was based on the following maps: Poland and Sarmatia by Wapowski (1526), Prussia by Heinrich Zell (1542), Pomerania by Sebastian Munster (1550), Northern Europe by Olaus Magnus (1539) and Anton Wied (1542). Especially the last one, and its adaptations, was used to prepare maps of Central-Eastern Europe until the middle 19th century. Book editions by Sebastian Munster (1540,1544) and Johannes Honter (1542) had significant impact on the credible presentation of the Polish territory in the first half of the 16th century. The map by Wacław Gródecki from 1562, which based on the works of Bernard Wapowski, and its almost identical version from the atlas of Abraham Ortelius (1570), were the most commonly used general 16th century maps of Poland. They were also used by Gerard de Jode in his atlas of 1578, which because of the small number of printed copies reached few readers. Northern territories of Poland were presented basing on separate maps of Prussia by Heinrich Zell (1542) and later Caspar Henneberger (1576). This is particularly evident on the map of Poland by Gerard de Jode, published after 1578 but before 1586. On this map de Jode updated the area of Prussia using the new Henneberger's map of 1576. The above maps were also the basis for correcting the picture of Prussia in many atlases and books. Gerard Mercator's map of Poland and Silesia from 1585 was the next stage in development of the presentation of the country. It was meticulously prepared and had rich topographic contents. It based on the map of Poland by Gerard de Jode from 1578. More details were added basing on the map of Poland by W. Gródecki from 1562 and 1570, the latter edited by A. Ortelius, and the map of European Sarmatia by A. Pograbka (Pograbius) from 1570. The surrounding territories were presented basing on several maps of particular regions: Silesia by M. Helwig (1561), Duchy of Oświęcim and Zator by S. Porębski (1563), Prussia by C. Henneberger (1576). Mercator's map covered the territory of Poland and Silesia, without the Gdańsk Pomerania, Prussia, Western Pomerania and the western part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. It became the basie source for a number of maps of Poland from the 17th to the 18th centuries, until the more modern maps of the times of King Stanisław Poniatowski. From all the Polish territories which Mercator worked on the map of Lithuania prepared in 1595 is particularly interesting. It is the first map showing exclusively Lithuania, although in the borders from before the mainly the map of Europę from 1572, and also maps of Poland by W. Gródecki from 1562 or 1570, the map of European Sarmatia by A. Pograbka (1570), Poland and Lithuania (1585) and the map of Lithuanian-Mo-scow border by M. Strubicz (1589). Particular maps were the first to be noticed and used for updating the maps of some regions of Poland. In the case of maps of Europe and the World it was different. Amendments were rarely made and overdue. The great map of Europe by Mercator remained the major influence in the shaping of the maps of the continent.
