This paper discusses old maps with two approaches. The first is genealogy of maps. A map drawn in pre-modern times has ancestors and descendants. That is the main reason researchers in map history should begin with identifying the ancestors and descendants of maps they examine. They contribute to a genealogy of maps through this approach. The second is textual analysis. A map has diverse expressions derived from its ancestors. Thus, a map can be analyzed as a text. In this approach researchers should look at a map as a newborn baby having its own new perspectives. “Haedong cheguk ch’ongdo” 「( 海東諸国総図」) and attached maps in Haedong cheguk ki 『 ( 海東諸国紀』) are the main objects discussed in this paper, with three aims: 1) to investigate the source maps of “Haedong cheguk ch’ongdo” and identify how these five maps were edited after they were handed over to Sin Sukchu (申叔舟) and his mapmakers; 2) to deduce how these maps were integrated into the map “Haedong cheguk ch’ongdo”, and address it in the context of East Asian maritime history, and 3) to examine its descendant maps. The paper concludes that “Haedong cheguk ch’ongdo” and attached maps in Haedong cheguk ki are the cultural production of Chosŏn Korea in the 15 th century and are the representations of unified cultural flows from the south, including both Japan and the Ryūkyū Islands.}, pages = {17--35}, title = {Birth of New Perspectives through Integration of Origin Maps: The Case of “Haedong cheguk ch’ongdo”}, volume = {44}, year = {2014} }
