The Age of Geographical Discoveries (1400-1600) is a very special period in human history. In this two-century-old age, new continents were discovered, the world was traveled by the sea for the first time, trade began to be carried out on a world scale, overseas empires were established for the first time, and depending on all these, the accumulated or natural wealth of the newly discovered continents and regions was the economic, economic and economic wealth of another continent, Europe. commercial, scientific, technological etc. was transferred as a source for its development, and as a result, there have been developments whose effects have been reflected until today. Almost all major problems today have roots, in one degree or another, going back to the Age of Geographical Discovery. Thus, the scientific revolution, the development of capitalism,
It is Eric Erickson's work that provides rational and comprehensive explanations of this historical phase, based on the latest research, and reveals its special place in general human history. In this respect, it gains more importance especially in our country, where there are not many solid sources specific to the Age of Geographical Discoveries.
In his work, Erickson does not dwell much on the position of the Ottoman Empire at its height in the Age of Geographical Discovery. However, the reader will easily find the necessary clues on this subject from the author's few words about the Ottoman Empire and mostly from his analysis of the states that made the discoveries.
I believe that this small but massive work, with its scientific analysis methods and rich knowledge, will be one of the essential books for those who are interested in the history of science and technology, the history of economy, political and military history, and finally the great historical adventure of the 16th and 16th centuries, Europe's knowledge of the rest of the world underwent a fundamental transformation. In 1400, European maps were based only on guesswork, and the territories beyond their own coasts were often completely misrepresented on maps. Over the next 200 years, the continents drawn by European cartographers, like growing embryos, changed from obscure forms to the easily recognizable lines we are familiar with today. By 1600, only Australia, New Zealand, and the North Pacific remained as untapped or missing places. Many of the most important discoveries were made in a short period of time. In the 30 years following Columbus' first crossing of the Atlantic in 1492, the Portuguese had returned to the Cape of Good Hope; They had advanced as far as China and Japan. 1521'
