| Fußnoten: | Summary/Abstract: The subject of this article refers to a lesser-known cartographic source, regarding the most important city of Moldavia, Iasi, and its neighboring area. The source is entitled "Plan von der moldauischen Hauptstadt Jassy und ihrer Gegend" [The Plan of Moldavian Capital Iasi and its Surroundings] and probably was drawn by an Austrian staff officer in September 1788. The plan is owned by the Romanian Academy Library and has the dimensions of 405 ̮ 476 mm and the scale 1 : 57 600. It is not very precise and detailed but provides valuable information on the geography, topography and toponymy of the area around the city of Iasi, from the end of the eighteenth century. The plan confirms a number of known historical and topographical information from narrative or other cartographic sources, such as Russian plans and estate plans, but it also presents some lesser-known details regarding changes to the hydrographic network, bridges and roads and, especially, about the position of the Austrian, Russian and Ottoman military units and camps in the vicinity of Iasi, from the end of August and the beginning of September 1788. From this point of view, the plan is an additional proof regarding the strategic role that the city of Iasi represented in the military operations carried out in this conflict zone, subsumed by the broader context of the Russian-Austro-Turkish War (1787̃1792). |
