SUMMARY:Sea Charts in the Eastern Half of Asia
DESCRIPTION:Native and European endeavours to map the seas in the eastern p
 art of Asia have left us with a treasure of charts that are diverse in bot
 h character and technique. In this talk\, I will showcase a few recent stu
 dies on early (c. 15-19 century) sea charts from the perspectives of histo
 rical geography and history of science. Taken together\, they enrich our u
 nderstandings of the sea as a geographical category and the epistemology w
 ith which the sea was experienced\, represented\, and intepreted.
