The Cartographic Fool uncovers the story of the "Fool’s Cap Map," an engraving published ca. 1595 in Antwerp. Placing it in northern Europe during the Wars of Religion, the book identifies its maker, Philips Galle, restores its title, Nosce Te Ipsum ("Know Thyself"), and explains its motifs as a brief Catholic response to the Reformed Church’s embrace of global maps.
