Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
This entry investigates the relationship between space, imagination and the map with a media-anthropological approach, that is, from a perspective that assigns an active and primary role to technology and media in the constitution of the human and its cultural forms. The subject of discussion is the concept of cartographic imagination and the idea of the map as a cultural technique. The analysis of the mediality of the (western) cartographic imagination is developed in three steps: first, the preliminary concepts of a medial theory of space (without media) are presented; second, the instrumental constitution of the original space is examined in a palaeoanthropological key; finally, the idea of the map as a reference system for a media-history of space is discussed.
