Surveying the Earth: Thomas Digges, Christopher Saxton, Map-Makers, and Tudor 'Mathematical Practitioners'.<br>
Monday, 5 December, 2016, at 5:15 pm in the Upper Library at Christ Church<br>
Talk by Dr Allan Chapman<br>
<br>
The great oceanic discoveries, especially of the American continent which so fascinated Hakluyt and his contemporaries, demanded a cartography that advanced beyond that of Ptolemy in c. AD 150. The English Reformation, and the selling-off of the monastic estates,
also created a new demand for accurate estate and county maps, as cartography became both a science and an art by the 1570s. Thomas Digges, a Kentish gentleman with a passion for practical science, published, following his late father Leonard, Pantometria
(1571), popularising the Theodolite and other methods of surveying. And London became a major centre for a growing body of 'Mathematical Practitioners' who made instruments and printed maps, and sold them to an enthusiastic public.
