问题     This milestone in cartography is known as the Waldseemü ller (瓦尔德泽米勒) map, after the German humanist who drew it. But Martin Waldseemü ller was just one of a group of scholars who Walter Lud, the canon of the church of St-Dié-des-Vosges (孚日圣迪耶), brought together in this town. Lud was particularly interested in cosmography—the study of the Earth and its place in the universe—and wanted to create a picture of the world that combined ancient knowledge with the new reports coming in from the voyages that were taking place at the time. To this end, he secured funding from Renell (勒内二世), Duke of Lorraine (洛林), to set up a printing press called Gymnasium Vosagense (吉姆纳士沃萨根) and assembled a team that included Waldseemü ller and another German humanist, Matthias Ringmann (马蒂亚斯.林曼). According to Toby Lester (托比.莱斯特), author of The Fourth Part of the World: The Race to the Ends of the Earth, and the Epic Story of the Map that Gave America its Name, Ringmann took the lead in writing the book that was printed along with the map and almost certainly coined the name America.
选项
答案 地图绘制史上的里程碑当属瓦尔德泽米勒地图(Waldseemü ller map)，它出自德国人文主义者之手。不过马丁.瓦尔德泽米勒(Martin Waldseemü ller)只是一群学者当中的一员，这群学者在孚日圣迪耶教堂教士沃尔特.路德(Walter Lud)的召集下来到这座小镇。路德对宇宙学(研究地球以及它在宇宙中位置的科学)尤其感兴趣，他想创作一幅世界图景，将古代知识和当下正在进行的航海探险的新发现结合起来。为此，他从洛林公爵(Duke of Lorraine)勒内二世 (RenéⅡ)那里获得资助，开办了一家名为吉姆纳士沃萨根(Gymnasium Vosagense)的印刷社，并组建了一个团队，成员包括瓦尔德泽米勒和另一位德国人文主义者马蒂亚斯.林曼(Matthias Ringmann)。《世界上的第四部分：通往地球尽头的竞逐，伟大的地图史话，美洲之名的由来》的作者托比.莱斯特(Toby Lester)说，林曼带头编写了一本书，这本书随地图一起印刷，几乎可以肯定的是，美洲正是因为这本书而得名。
