Research on the "jiangnan West Road" in the Tang and Song Dynasties
by Liu Xinguang
About This Novel
The "road system" implemented during the Tang and Song Dynasties for more than 600 years had a profound influence. From the separation of Tao in the Tang Dynasty to the division of Tao in the Song Dynasty, on the surface it is the sublation of "Tao", but in fact it reflects the inheritance and development. The division of the "Jiangnan West Road" at the end of the Tang Kaiyuan Dynasty was unprecedented, reflecting that the Tang Dynasty was a key stage in the history of regional differentiation and integration south of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River and north of the Five Ridges, while the Song Dynasty was the development and initial shaping period of this new differentiation. This book limits the spatial scope of the "Jiangnan West Road" at the end of the Tang and Kaiyuan Dynasties, and conducts a detailed discussion on its evolution of the geographical environment, the differentiation and integration of administrative regions, the development of cities, the expansion of transportation routes, and the evolution of traffic patterns over the six hundred years of the Tang and Song Dynasties. It also conducts a case analysis of five typical sub-regions from the perspective of internal sub-regions, trying to gain a comprehensive understanding of the internal motivations and specific manifestations of the evolution of the Jiangnan West Road over the hundreds of years of the Tang and Song Dynasties.
