SUMMARY:Late Ottoman Turkey in Princeton’s Forgotten Maps\, 1883-1923
DESCRIPTION:Talk by Richard J. A. Talbert\, History Dept. and Ancient World 
 Mapping Center\, University of North Carolina\, Chapel Hill\n\nWith An 
 Introduction by Tsering Wangyal Shawa\, Geographic Information Systems and 
 Map Librarian\, Peter B. Lewis Library\, Princeton University\n\nProfessor 
 Richard J.A. Talbert will outline the attraction and importance of the 
 "Late Ottoman Turkey in Princeton’s Forgotten Maps\, 1883-1923" 
 exhibition\, which is being launched a century after the Smyrna Fire and 
 the establishment of the Turkish Republic. He will highlight the key role 
 of the German cartographers Heinrich and Richard Kiepert and its remarkably 
 long-lasting impact. Kiepert maps of Asia Minor (Turkey) remained the basis 
 of those made by the Ottoman General Staff\, as well as by the British\, 
 German\, Greek\, and Italian armies during and after World War 
 I.\n\nTalbert will also trace how he gradually became aware of all these 
 rare\, long-forgotten maps\, and shares his experiences in searching for 
 them. He also explains how Princeton University Library’s holdings and 
 expertise have proven crucial to the creation of this absorbing 
 display.\n\nThe talk will be held in the Fine Hall Visualization Lab and 
 will be followed by a reception in the Maps and Geospatial Information 
 Center. Registration is requested.\n\n
