传播“空间”：近代早期欧洲的地图与知识-社会转型
Transmitting Space: Maps and Transformation of Knowledge Society in Early Modern Europe

摘要 在德布雷“媒介域”的理论基础上，本文将地图置于16-17世纪媒介化的技术- 文化生态中加以考察。一方面，从“媒介化知识”的视角看，近代早期欧洲的地图制 作、阅读、传播与贸易实际塑造了地理层面的科学空间与文化层面的概念空间，两者 的交互系统构成了新型的“知识空间”。另一方面，兴起中的近代国家与商业社会参 与了知识空间的生产过程，制图与读图既是一种权力获取与保持的要素，又是商业模 式、从业群体、贸易流通、公共文化与经济社会环境的反映。新式地图与地图集因而 成为知识-社会转型中的一种媒介力量，它塑造了空间知识的传播、沟通与重构，也缔 造了媒介符号与技术现象、传播领域与文化社会之间的“混合体”。地图革命与成长 中的近代国家耦合，奠定了一种新兴的政治地理与“领土空间”的历史基础。
Based on Régis Debray’s theory of médiasphères, this article explored the role of maps in the context of médiation within techno-cultural ecology between the 16th century and the 17th century. On one hand, as part of knowledge mediatization, cartography along with its reading, communicating and merchandising in early modern Europe had created a new knowledge space within which geographical space of science and cultural space of ideas intertwined together. On the other, rising modern states and commercial societies took part in this process of creating knowledge space. Not only cartography and map reading have been a factor of power’s acquisition and maintenance, they also reflected internal ecology of commercial paradigm, industrial groups, trade situation, public culture and economic-societal environment. New maps and atlas have been a force médiatique, they shaped the transmission, communication and transformation of modern knowledge while creating hybrids between medium and technophenomenon, medias sphere and cultural society. The cartographic revolution combined itself with rising modern states, establishing a historical foundation for the new political geography and territorial space
