Limanskaya, L. Yu. Visualization of Spiritual Travels in Chronicles
and Travel Guides of the XII–XIII century:
Hugh of Saint Victor and Matthew Paris.
Abstract:
Visualization of a travel assumed, firstly, searching for
physically embodied traces of God in earthly things and secondly,
anagogic ascent to their spiritual content. Important role in
this process was referred to maps and travel guides. Medieval
cartography was a historical and mythological chronotopus.
Visual and verbal fragments of such maps were determined by
the topographic information of the Old and New Testaments and
the Antique geographic data which survived through the times of
Barbarian invasions.
Keywords:
