Yao Feng and Shun Yu: Yuan Dynasty Planning Thought and Ancient China
by Wang Jun
About This Novel
The winds of Yao and the rains of Shun represent the Chinese people's yearning for a peaceful and prosperous age for thousands of years, and the construction and planning of ancient China were based on the idea of achieving this ideal. This book is based on ancient Chinese classics and uses Chinese astronomy and archeology as research methods. It traces back to the founding period of Chinese civilization from Qizheng Tower in the Yuan Dynasty, showing the origin and continuity of Chinese civilization. The book is divided into two parts. The first part is "A Study on the Name and Orientation of Qizheng Tower", which examines the name, direction and central axis system of Qizheng Tower, revealing the significance of its meaning in "Yao Dian" of Shangshu, and also reflects the inclusiveness and stability of the ancient Chinese historical development of "following the Taoist tradition and establishing a new governance", and its ideological support. It reflects the integration of China's diverse cultures and nationalities; Chapter B is "The Yin and Yang Formula of the Yuan Dadu Plan", which combines the ancient astronomical laws and calculations to explain that the Yuan Dadu, as a representative of the ancient Chinese construction system, is the carrier of traditional Chinese thought and culture, and presents its typical significance as a political and cultural center. Kublai Khan's Yuan Dynasty, with the construction of a city, proved the ideological origin and great significance of China's pluralistic unity pattern, and witnessed the long history of Chinese civilization with its immortal cultural heritage.
