English Summary: This collection of essays covers all periods of cartography's history from antiquity to the present time, all kinds of maps from star maps and sea charts to land maps and street plans and all administrative, political, ideological, military and economic uses of maps. At the same time, proceeding from recent methodological changes in the field of historical-cultural studies, it focuses on the spatial knowledge generated by maps and the pictorial-diagrammatic means of this knowledge production.
