EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: 14th Century World Map from the Grandes Chroniques de Saint-Denis The Grandes Chroniques de Saint-Denis, or the "Great Chronicles of Saint Denis," is a 14th-century illuminated manuscript produced in France. This historical text, commissioned by King Charles V, chronicles the history of the Kingdom of France from its legendary founding to the author's present day. The manuscript is renowned for its magnificent illustrations, including this intriguing map depicting the known world during the late Middle Ages. The map, which is believed to have been created around 1330, is a testament to the geographical knowledge and cartographic skills of the time. It showcases a rounded representation of Europe, Africa, and Asia, with the easternmost extent of the known world extending to the Indian subcontinent. The map also includes the Mediterranean Sea, the Black Sea, and the Red Sea, highlighting the maritime connections and trade routes that were crucial during the Middle Ages. The Grandes Chroniques de Saint-Denis map is noteworthy for its inclusion of the New World, which was unknown to Europeans at the time. Instead, the map features a large, mythical island, known as Insula Magna or the "Great Island," located in the Atlantic Ocean. This island was believed to be the source of various exotic goods, such as gold, spices, and precious stones, and it fueled the European imagination for centuries. The map's intricate detailing and vibrant colors reflect the artistic achievements of the period, making it an essential piece of historical cartography. The Grandes Chroniques de Saint-Denis map offers a fascinating glimpse into the geographical knowledge and perceptions of the 14th century, providing valuable insights into the worldview of the Middle Ages.
