Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. Drawing upon ancient texts, this book charts the evolution of geographic thought across notable civilizations of antiquity and places special emphasis on the influence of Greek scholars such as Eratosthenes, Hipparchus, and Polybius. The author illustrates how Eratosthenes, known as the "Father of Geography," developed a scientific method for calculating the Earth's circumference and mapped the world known to the Greeks. Hipparchus refined Eratosthenes' work and divided the world into climate zones based on the length of the longest day, pioneering the concept of latitude. Finally, Polybius, drawing on his military expeditions, provided detailed accounts of Western Europe, particularly the Alpine regions and the Iberian Peninsula, expanding the geographical knowledge of his time. Through these scholars and their successors, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the significant strides made in geographic understanding during antiquity, not only expanding the known world but also establishing the foundations of the scientific method. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781332472895_0
