天地之间:古地图中的中国故事
Editor-in-chief Chen Hongyan
Pictures are one of the earliest ways for humans to record life, and maps are an important branch of pictures. China's map tradition has been formed as early as the pre-Qin period and has always been closely related to politics, history and social life. Libraries are of extremely important significance in the collection and preservation of ancient map materials. Since the establishment of the Capital Library, maps have been one of the special collections of the National Library. This book uses 52 important ancient maps as coordinates to connect the historical context of China from pre-Qin to modern times, and explores the historical background, drawing techniques, version differences, collections, and later influences of the maps.
