China on the Sea Map
by Liang Erping
About This Novel
In ancient Chinese geographical knowledge, the sea has been marginalized for a long time. There were not many ancient ocean maps, and even fewer have been handed down after wars. In addition, the academic community has rarely invested in research in this field, and ordinary readers cannot even see photocopied ancient ocean charts. The author of this book collects and organizes ancient ocean maps from ancient atlases with limited circulation and overseas libraries in the hands of private collectors, and introduces them to everyone one by one with their origins, stories behind them, and the formation of ancient Chinese maritime thought. Through more than a hundred precious ancient nautical charts, it describes the historical process of ancient China's maritime exchanges, as well as the great discoveries and changes brought about by the great voyages, thereby constructing a simplified version of the history of ancient Chinese nautical charts and the history of ancient Chinese maritime thought.
