This <strong>extraordinary illuminated manuscript<\/strong>, dedicated to the Duke of Joyeuse, collates <strong>nautical, astronomical and cartographic ideas<\/strong> as well as Devaulx&rsquo;s own extensive <strong>notes, observations and records<\/strong> as a seafarer, hydrographer, cosmographer and cartographer.<\/p>\n<p>An <strong>encyclopedic reference<\/strong> for sailors, as well as a <strong>magnificent maritime showpiece<\/strong> for his royal employers, the elaborately annotated and decorated folios are a repertoire of <strong>naval and cosmographic tools and techniques<\/strong>, including <strong>astrolabes, nautical charts <\/strong>of the Atlantic Ocean, <strong>tabular statements of diurnal tides, astrological charts and measurements for solar altitude<\/strong>. They also gather Devaulx&rsquo;s <strong>volvelles<\/strong>, wheel charts made of rotating parts that are today considered an early example of the paper analog computer. Together, the folios encapsulate the state of knowledge at a time when sailors pushed the limits of sea exploration and offer a glimpse into the practical daily requirements of <strong>Renaissance seafaring<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>This edition of Devaulx&rsquo;s stunning document, produced in collaboration with the Biblioth&egrave;que Nationale de France, reproduces each of the <strong>31 folios in all their brilliant art and science<\/strong>, including the <strong>original colorful illuminations<\/strong>, in particular the volvelles. The volume features <strong>essays by Jean-Yves Sarazin and Gerhard Holzer<\/strong>, as well as commentaries from a team of experts coordinated by &Eacute;lisabeth H&eacute;bert and V&eacute;ronique Hauguel-Thill, contextualizing Devaulx&rsquo;s work with fascinating insights into 16th-Century seafaring and exploration.<\/p>\n<p>Languages: English, French and German<\/p>\n<p>Edition: 2025<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"sottotitolo\"><span>Subtitle: <\/span>a navigational treatise of exceptional opulence<\/p>\n<p class=\"autore\"><span>Author: <\/span>jacques devaulx<\/p>\n<p class=\"editore\"><span>Publisher: <\/span>taschen<\/p>\n<p class=\"isbn\"><span>ISBN: <\/span>9783836598705<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":160587,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[2569,2741],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-146694","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-books-navigation-history-chartography","7":"product_cat-navigation-history","9":"first","10":"instock","11":"taxable","12":"shipping-taxable","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.1 (Yoast SEO v27.4) -
