Abstract
[cat] L’objectiu d’aquest treball és l’estudi de la cartografia realitzada a Mallorca els segles
XIV i XV, especialment l’Atles català, obra atribuïda a Cresques Abraham. S’analitza els
elements que van afavorir l’aparició de la cartografia a Mallorca, les característiques, l’ús de les
cartes portolanes i els principals cartògrafs mallorquins. També s’analitza les diferències
d’opinió entre els especialistes de la cartografia sobre si el caràcter de l’anomenada Escola
Mallorquina fou científic o només artístic.
