Title A name given to the resource Tourism, Proximity and British Perceptions of France and Germany Before the First World War Description An account of the resource This collection explores British perceptions of France and Germany before the First World War, and how they were influenced by proximity, both in terms of simple distance and in terms of how easy it was to travel there. There are four elements (one of which isn't a historical map). <br />The first is a graphical representation of the quickest routes from London to different places in Europe, as advised by Thomas Cook and Son travel agents in 1913, and how long it would take to travel to each destination. These graphs give us a sense of how far places in Europe actually were from London in 1913 (admittedly a limited sense given I haven’t found useful information on the prices of these journeys, or how many times a day they ran). They also show which places routes ran through, thus showing which places travelllers would be familiar with simply by having to frequently pass through.<br />The second map is a cartoon map of Europe made in 1900. It supposedly shows the different countries responding to Britain’s war in South Africa. It is interesting for how France—at the time far from an ally—is shown as far less threatening than Germany, which in turn is less threatening than Russia. It is interesting to apply information from the previous element to this one (if we assume that travel patterns in Europe had not radically changed between 1900 and 1913). The relative proximity of France, and number of routes through Paris, perhaps meant that more people had been there, and did not find it excessively foreign or sinister, while the distantness of Russia (Moscow is 102 hours from London) arguably result in it being depicted as a terrifying, autocratic octopus (a depiction surely grounded in common British stereotypes and attitudes). <br />The third element seeks to answer a question posed by the comparison of the first and second. The first element shows that Germany was not very distant, and that many routes passed through it, especially through Cologne. Yet the second shows that Germany seemed to be more foreign and threatening than France. The third element is a map of Europe made in 1880. It labels western Germany—the Rhineland that accounts for so many nodes in the first element—“Germany,” and the rest of the German Empire “Prussia.” While it was probably the result of parsimonious atlas makers reusing pre-unification plates, the existence of such a map (and of other examples, which are hyperlinked), suggests that the British maintained a mental distinction between the Germany they encountered and the threatening, militaristic Prussia they did not. Either that map echoes a distinction that was already salient, or it and others helped to create or maintain such a distinction. It is no accident that Germany is represented in element two by the Kaiser eagerly stockpiling battleships, echoing a pre-unification cartoon map of <a href="http://maps.bpl.org/id/16826">Prussia</a>, in which that state is embodied by the Kaiser and an armed and dangerous Bismark.<br />The last element is a fragment of a map of Paris from an English language guidebook published in 1878. It gives us a loose sense of what sort of places would have grounded British perceptions of the French capital. Specifically, government buildings feature prominently, suggesting that visiting Paris in some way entailed visiting the French state, and perhaps coming to understand it as similar to the British state. One might wonder whether visitors to Berlin would have had the same response to the German state, had many people visited Berlin. Historical Map Fill out as many of these fields as possible.

Title A name given to the resource John Bull and his friends: a serio-comic map of Europe Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Frederick W. Rose Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available G.W. Bacon & Co., Ltd., London Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1900 Description An account of the resource This British cartoon map of Europe paints a belligerently nationalistic view of diplomatic relations in 1900. John Bull, Britain personified, is swatting away two cats -- Boer troops resisting British rule in South Africa -- while the rest of Europe condemns or conspires against him. What is significant about this map is the way that France is portrayed as less sinister than Germany, which is less sinister than Russia. While Marianne is shown looking glumly at broken toys labelled with the names of political and diplomatic incidents, Germany is represented by the Kaiser in uniform stockpiling battleships and exports, and Russia is an octopus with the Czar at its centre. One could argue that proximity is the defining factor: France is close to England and had perhaps been visited by the artist and his expected reader. Russia on the other hand is a very long way away, and thus understandably more sinister. Germany is between the two.

Title A name given to the resource John Cary's 1804 Map of the Netherlands Description An account of the resource John Cary was a well known, well respected, and well-trusted cartographer in Britain in the later 18th century and early 19th century. In this map which he produced in 1804, he produces an extremely detailed map of the Netherlands and Northern France focussing on the Netherlands. Like the other British maps, Cary acknowledges territory that would become Belgium as separate from France. However, this map does not take objection to all of France's territorial gains during the Revolutionary/Napoleonic Era. The title of the map reads "New Map of the Netherlands also of that Part of Germany Westward of the Rhine as Ceded to the French and Divided Into Several Departments." This map was created two years after an initial peace treaty, the Treaty of Amiens, was signed between France and Britain, but yet Britain did not officially recognize the territory of Belgium as part of France by the terms of the treaty. It would be beneficial to know how tied to the government the authority patronizing the creation of this map was, so it could be determined if this was an active attempt by the British government to keep French possession of Belgium out of public conscienceness or if this map is a more natural reflection of British public conception of this territory.
