contents Cosmopolitanism and oceanic thinking: Anaximander’s world map Bernat Lladó Mas Comunicación world map Anaximander cosmopolitics oceanic thinking history of science One of the most interesting maps in the history of cartography is the one attributed to the Greek philosopher and geographer Anaximander of Miletus, who lived around the 6th century BCE. We know of it, in part, thanks to the version made by another citizen from Miletus: the geographer Hecataeus. Anaximander’s world map is part of a set of transformations related to knowledge, society, politics, and geography. In order to interpret the map correctly, therefore, we need to understand these transformations. Moreover, we also need to know about the myths and cosmogonic traditions of the time. Finally, we note that the general cosmology described by Anaximander can partially illuminate current politics and planetary ecology. 2025 artículo científico 2174-3487 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=511782476001 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5117/511782476001/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5117/511782476001/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5117/511782476001/511782476001.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5117/511782476001/movil 10.7203/metode.16.28911 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5117 Mètode Science Studies Journal application/pdf Universitat de València Mètode Science Studies Journal (España) Num.5 Vol.15
