Description

The Horowitz Map Collection Digital Gallery is a website that serves as a digital gallery for showcasing a collection of rare, historical maps donated to Bucknell University by class of 1962 alum Steven Horowitz for use in history and geography classes. For more on the Horowitz donation to Bucknell University, see the article “ The Ancient World, Revealed ,” from Bucknell Magazine, Summer 2020. Preliminary work on the digital gallery was done by Ryan Bremer (History/Film & Media Studies) and was taken up by the students in Fall of 2022 and completed by students in Fall of 2025 as part of the course Mapping History: Nature, Place, and Power. This course – History, Geography, and Environmental Studies & Sciences – considers maps as artifacts of environmental history and environmental change. The digital gallery can be explored through a map tour and/or by browsing through a collection of catalog cards to explore the map profiles.
