		‘Peutinger’s’ map, as it is called — with its extraordinary 22 x 1 ft shape — survives as a priceless, yet isolated, curiosity, and treasured possession of Austria’s National Library, Vienna.
		My aim is to rescue the map from this barren, unmerited predicament, to read it afresh more critically with the support of up-to-date scholarship and technology, and to put forward answers to fundamental new questions about its design, purpose, and impact.
		Above all, Peutinger’s map is no longer consigned to limbo, but at last acquires a political, and even physical, context in the cultural mainstream.
