Primer Mapa Mundi de América hallada en Alemania
BerlÃn (EFE). Parece una noticia muy interesante. La muestra cartográfica dibujada por el geógrafo alemán Martin Waldseemüller tiene más de 500 años de antigüedad y se encontró en una biblioteca de Múnich.
Investigadores alemanes han descubierto en la Biblioteca Universitaria de Múnich un desconocido ejemplar del llamado mapamundi de Waldseemüller, el primero en el que aparecÃa el nuevo continente con su nombre de América.
El director de la citada biblioteca al sur de Alemania, Klaus-Rainer Brintzinger, señaló que se trata de un descubrimiento “sensacionalâ€, toda vez que solo se conocen muy pocos ejemplares del mapa dibujado por el cartógrafo Martin Waldseemüller (1470-1522).
El nuevo ejemplar, de 500 años de antigüedad, fue descubierto recientemente por dos investigadoras y estaba encuadernado entre dos grabados sobre geometrÃa dentro de un lote de libros y documentos del siglo XIX que hasta ahora habÃa pasado desapercibido en los fondos de la biblioteca.
EJEMPLAR ‘DE BOLSILLO’
Brintizinger explicó en un comunicado que se trata de un ejemplar anterior y más pequeño que el conocido mapa mundial de Waldseemüller de tres metros cuadrados.
El cartógrafo de Friburgo es considerado el padrino del nuevo continente por ser el primero en darle su nombre de América al creer erróneamente que fue Américo Vespucio y no Cristóbal Colón su descubridor.
De la versión pequeña del mapa mundial de Waldseemüller solo se conocÃan hasta ahora cuatro ejemplares, uno de los cuales fue subastado en 2005 por la casa Christie’s por más de 800.000 euros (un millón de dólares).
DESCUBRIMIENTO HISTÓRICO
Los expertos muniqueses estiman que el nuevo ejemplar fue encuadernado erróneamente en un libro sobre geometrÃa en el siglo XVI, probablemente debido a que desconocÃan el valor del mapa.
Sven Kuttner, responsable del departamento de libros antiguos de la Biblioteca Universitaria de Múnich, subrayó que “no se habÃa producido un descubrimiento de estas dimensiones en Alemania desde la II Guerra Mundialâ€.
