This article merges the history of maps with new research on scholarship, showcasing how the use of maps significantly shaped early modern knowledge. More specifically, the article examines the scholarly practices of the seventeenth-century Swedish polymath Olof Rudbeck, who thought he had discovered Atlantis. The article identifies four areas of particular importance, highlighting how maps facilitated a conflation of history and geography for Rudbeck, how he tied information to geographical places through note-taking on maps, how access to maps shaped his research interests, and how he used maps to construct credible arguments.
本文将地图的历史与新的学术研究相结合，展示了地图的使用如何显著塑造了早期现代知识。更具体地说，本文考察了 17 世纪瑞典博学多才的学者奥洛夫·鲁德贝克（Olof Rudbeck）的学术实践，他认为自己发现了亚特兰蒂斯。文章确定了四个特别重要的领域，强调了地图如何使鲁德贝克的历史和地理观念混淆，他如何通过在地图上做笔记将信息与地理地点联系起来，地图的获取如何影响他的研究兴趣，以及他如何使用地图构建可信的论点。
