This book is based on the research of the time and place of creation of "Quan Hanwen" and the author's birth and death dates and place of birth. It analyzes the distribution pattern, distribution center and changes of articles and authors' place of origin in various states in the Western Han Dynasty. Using the geographical structure of the author's life as a combination point, this book analyzes the distribution of the place of creation and the author's place of birth of "Quan Han Wen". The author's living conditions are used as the starting point to examine the relationship between the geographical flow of the author's life, the author's pursuit of fame, and the allocation of social resources, thereby constructing a literary historical geographical interpretation system that organically combines the restoration of time and space, the ontology of the work, and the author's subject.

Adolf Spruit, a Belgian railway physician who worked on the Bianluo Railway, worked in Luoyang for about three years from 1906 to 1908. In addition to his job, Adolf used the camera in his hand to take more than a hundred three-dimensional photos. Through Adolf's lens, we can not only understand the family life and leisure, photography, antiquities collection and other activities of Westerners in China at that time; we can also "see" many scenes of the clothing, food, housing, transportation, beliefs, and customs of Luoyang residents more than a hundred years ago. Adolf's Luoyang photo album has the characteristics of high definition and relative completeness. It contains text and image information unmatched by other photo albums of the same era. It is a precious material for studying modern Luoyang.

Since the mid-eighth century, the Tang Dynasty's rule in the Hexi Corridor and the Western Regions has gradually collapsed. From then until the beginning of the 13th century, the Central Plains Dynasty failed to bring this area under direct rule for four centuries, leaving very limited records in Chinese documents handed down from generation to generation. The Silk Road between the Tang and Yuan Dynasties therefore left a dark and unclear impression, often giving people a sense of its decline. This book mainly uses multi-lingual materials unearthed in the northwest region, especially Uighur documents, to restore the historical appearance of the Western Regions and the Silk Road during this period from different levels, including the origins of the ruling families of the main ethnic groups, changes in transportation roads, the development of emerging cities, the rise of merchant groups, and the distribution of the Nestorian network. The revelation of these specific historical facts strongly proves that the Silk Road trade and the economy of the areas along it achieved further development between the Tang and Yuan Dynasties.

At the crossroads of Asian and European civilizations, Congling has witnessed thousands of years of historical changes. It has seen the Indo-European chariots rumbling past, Alexander's phalanx marching in order, Xuanzang's figure moving forward in the snow, Genghis Khan's cavalry roaring, and the roar of Russian artillery. The technological revolution of every era has left its mark here, and every collision of civilizations has sparked sparks here. But some things never change. The sun still rises in the east and sets in the west every day; snow water still flows down from the mountains, nourishing the oases; business travelers still rush on the road, exchanging goods and ideas; people from different civilizations still meet here and write new stories.

This book introduces roads that played an important role in American history, including famous trails, highways, railroads, waterways, and some abstract roads (such as the Trail of Tears for Native Americans to migrate westward and the Underground Railroad for slaves to escape). From the Great Indian Battle Trail, which the early Native tribes relied on, to the Boston Mail Road and the Great Wagon Road, which played a decisive role during the Revolutionary War, from the Oregon Trail, which led Americans to pursue Manifest Destiny during the Westward Expansion, to the Erie Canal, which set the United States on the stage of becoming a world power during the Industrial Revolution, from the Santa Fe Railroad, which gave birth to the "fast food chain," to the Lincoln Highway, which allowed the entire United States to "get on the automobile." These roads are not only important transportation arteries in history, but also shape the economic, cultural and social structure of the United States today to varying degrees. History not only has time clues, it also has equally wonderful spatial clues. By understanding the rise and decline of these roads, we can understand the history and social changes of the United States from a spatial perspective, and understand the relationship between major historical events and ordinary trivial events.

This book is an intellectual biography of the German geopolitical scientist Haushofer. The author Hans Weigert shows the origins of German geopolitical thought, and focuses on analyzing the ideological connection between Haushofer and Spengler, Ratzel, and Mackinder, clarifying the important value of Haushofer's thought in understanding Pacific geopolitics. Weigert criticized Haushofer for being responsible for the foreign expansion of the German nation, believing that his doctrine advocated German conquest based on natural laws and ignored human nature. However, Haushoferism is not the root cause of German geopolitics; it is just a symptom of modern Western diseases. This book was written in 1942, shortly after the outbreak of the Pacific War. Although it is eighty years ago, it still has reference value for the formation of our understanding of geopolitics.

This book is an academic work on the agriculture and geography of the Liao and Jin dynasties. It explores the relationship between man and land during the Liao and Jin dynasties from the perspective of broad agriculture. The Liao and Jin dynasties covered most of northern China, with unique natural geographical units and several important agricultural boundaries that traversed the entire region. Compared with the two Song dynasties, it experienced more drastic changes in politics, economy and even military affairs. The resulting social factors such as population migration continued to promote changes in the regional structure of agricultural production. When comprehensively restoring the agricultural geography of the Liao and Jin dynasties, the author focused on analyzing the environmental characteristics before the formation of grassland farming areas, the characteristics of population mobility after the establishment of the Liao and Jin dynasties, the regional characteristics of agricultural production activities, and the geographical pattern of crop types and planting systems. Based on traditional documents, combined with archaeological excavations and field investigations, the book provides an overall discussion of the regional characteristics and historical processes of agricultural activities in the Liao and Jin dynasties.

This book is an overall discussion of agricultural development and its geographical distribution in the two Song Dynasties for more than 300 years.

Tuyuhun is one of the local ethnic minority regimes established from the source of the Yellow River in the northwest to the Tao River basin in my country from the Southern and Northern Dynasties to the early Sui and Tang Dynasties. Because it was exposed to different geopolitical relationships at different historical stages, its traffic pattern has always undergone different changes. This is not only the result of the constraints of its living environment, but also the result of the changing relationship with its surroundings during its development process. During the special historical period of the Sixteen Kingdoms and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, although Tuyuhun's internal traffic was cramped and concentrated, its external traffic was very long and extensive. This reflected the difficulty of the Tuyuhun regime in establishing a foothold in the Hetao area. In particular, the pre-Qin, Western Qin, Southern Liang, Northern Wei and other regimes strongly squeezed the Tuyuhun's activity range from north to south. Although it restricted the tribe's development in the Hetao River Basin, it also promoted its development on the "Tuyuhun Road". In short, the changes and characteristics of the Tuyuhun traffic pattern can be reflected that during most of the period of its founding, the Tuyuhun regime was in a state of rushing westward and southward on the Tuyuhun Road, constantly seeking a foothold.

Datong is located in the northern part of the Shanxi Plateau and the center of the Datong Basin. It is known as the "Key to the North" because it guards the choke points of Shanxi, Hebei and Mongolia. Since ancient times, northern nomads and Central Plains farming people have competed for important territory. Datong City is one of the first batch of historical and cultural cities approved by the State Council. The long history of urban development before the Qing Dynasty has been evolving under the alternating rule of the Han nationality and ethnic minority regimes, with distinctive characteristics of ethnic integration. The history of urban development of Datong is a typical inland frontier city in northern my country. This book systematically analyzes the urban transformation process of Datong from a historical geographical perspective and believes that it presents an urban spatial development pattern centered on the "outer city" of Pingcheng in the Northern Wei Dynasty, a functional urban setting with a "military town" as the main line, an urban street layout based on the "lifang structure", and an urban residential structure based on diverse integration. "Ethnic relations" are the macro-political factors that influence the development of Datong City, "One Belt and One Land" are the meso-level geographical factors that determine the functional positioning of Datong City, and "important border defense towns" are the micro-military factors that shape the urban construction pattern of Datong. Systematically summarizing the evolution patterns of Datong's urban historical geography is of great significance for expanding the field of urban historical geography research and providing theoretical support for urban development.

Land ownership, large estates, Caudilloism, populism, structuralism, and neoliberalism are six important historical and realistic clues that influence the development of Latin America and the Caribbean.
