Where does Jiangnan area refer to?
Geographically, Jiangnan refers to Jiangnan, but economically and culturally, Jiangnan is a specific title, which refers to a place with developed economy and excellent culture since ancient times and must be a water town geographically. Jiangnan is a water town because its culture is Wu culture and Huaiyang culture bred from water culture. Jiangnan must be a place rich in sugarcane since ancient times. In a word, is water a place like Anhui, Jiangxi, Hunan and Zhejiang, a water town south of Qiantang River? Is there a flavor of water town like southern Jiangsu, a developed economy like southern Jiangsu, and an ancient and rich sugarcane like southern Jiangsu? Is there a Wu culture in a water town like southern Jiangsu? No, these places are just geographical Jiangnan (south of the Yangtze River), while economic and cultural Jiangnan specifically refers to Yangzhou in Jiangsu, Sunan (Suzhou, Wuxi, Changzhou, Zhenjiang and Nanjing), Shanghai, Jiaxing and Huzhou (including Hangzhou north of Qianjiang), Wenzhou and Ningbo in Shaoxing, and all over the country, all of which are mountainous areas, not Wudi or Shui Yuan, so they are not Jiangnan in a specific title, and there are also.
Write a flow chart to clarify the geographical location of Jiangnan.
Jiangnan has a specific title:
Center: Suzhou, Wuxi and Changzhou in southern Jiangsu, Taihu Golden Triangle.
Keywords ancestor of Wu culture, plain culture of water town, China economic center in 2000,
China has the most developed economy and culture since ancient times, and the word Jiangnan was first used to describe southern Jiangsu.
Sub-center 1: Nanjing and Zhenjiang in southern Jiangsu.
The water town culture, the capital of the imperial city, has both Huaiyang culture and Wu culture.
2. Yangzhou in central Jiangsu (including Huai 'an, Taizhou and Nantong)
Huaiyang culture in the water plain is the only economically developed place in history that can compete with southern Jiangsu.
3. Jiaxing, Huzhou, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, north of Qianjiang,
Wu culture in the water town is the pioneer of Wu culture in southern Jiangsu (to put it bluntly, it is a colony in southern Jiangsu)
Tributary: Huizhou, Anhui, was ok in Ming and Qing Dynasties, but now its economy is not as good as that of Jiangsu or northern Zhejiang, so few people mentioned it as Jiangnan in modern times.
Shaoxing, Ningbo, Wenzhou and Taizhou are all over the country, and they are all mountainous areas, not water towns. The cultural differences between them are too great. Although it is Jiangnan, although it is beautiful, it is not named Jiangnan by literati economists.
What about Hunan and Jiangxi? What's even more ridiculous is. It doesn't matter if you say that geography is in Jiangnan, but it's really far-fetched Is this a plain? Is it Wu Culture? Has the economy developed since ancient times? You're welcome to say that it has nothing to do with Jiangnan, and it's even louder than Sunan all day. Sunan people can only say one word: idiot.
Question 2: Where does Jiangnan refer to? Jiangnan in a broad sense: refers to the whole area south of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, namely southern Jiangsu, southern Zhejiang, southern Anhui, southwestern Jiangxi, southern Hunan and southern Hubei. Some areas in Fujian are sometimes called Jiangnan. The broad definition of Jiangnan begins with Gusi (Jiangnan Road) and is often described in literary works. For example, Du Fu's Random Encounter Li Guinian was written in Changsha. The Jiangnan referred to in the weather forecast is roughly the Jiangnan zone in a broad sense. Three famous buildings in the south of the Yangtze River (Yellow Crane Tower in Wuhan, Yueyang Tower in Yueyang and Wangtengting Pavilion in Nanchang) are all located in the south of the Yangtze River.
Jiangnan in a narrow sense generally refers to southern Jiangsu and northern Zhejiang, but the specific scope is not very clear. This concept probably began in the late Tang Dynasty and took shape in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The most definite core area in Jiangnan only includes several cities around Taihu Lake: Suzhou, Hangzhou, Wuxi, Changzhou, Huzhou, Jiaxing (the six traditional houses in Jiangnan), Nanjing, Zhenjiang and Changshu. Because of the cultural similarity and historical origin with southern Jiangsu and northern Zhejiang, Shanghai is basically included in the scope of the small south of the Yangtze River in modern concepts. Yangzhou, located in the north of the Yangtze River, is similar to Jiangnan in economy and culture, so it is more Jiangnan than Jiangnan, and it is second only to Suzhou and Hangzhou in the city elections where major websites represent Jiangnan, which shows that everyone agrees with Yangzhou! At the same time, in Wuhu and other places in southern Anhui, due to cultural reasons, Jiangnan is also highly recognized! Shaoxing and other places in the Qiantang River basin are full of talents and beautiful women, which exudes strong Jiangnan tenderness and basically belongs to Jiangnan in a narrow sense! In short, the narrow sense of Jiangnan is the southern Jiangsu and northern Zhejiang regions with Suzhou and Hangzhou as the center and similar economy and culture!
Question 3: Which area does Jiangnan mainly refer to? Jiangnan literally means Jiangnan. "Jiang" has a special meaning in Chinese, which is the Yangtze River. Jiangnan originally refers to the area south of the Yangtze River. In ancient times, Jiangnan often represented a prosperous and developed culture and education and a beautiful and rich water town scene, and the region was roughly the south bank of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. Historian Feng Xianliang said, "Geographically, Jiangnan is undoubtedly the most prosperous area in China since modern times. But the definition and application of the word Jiangnan has never been unified since ancient times. "
Administrative district name
1. Road name. As one of the ten ways of Zhenguan in Tang Dynasty, the name of Jiangnan first appeared in the historical administrative divisions of China. Jiangnan Road governs Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi, Hunan and other provinces, south of the Yangtze River in Jiangsu and Anhui, part of Jiangnan in Hubei, Sichuan and Chongqing, and northeast of Guizhou. In the 21st year of Kaiyuan (AD 733), there were two roads: East Road ruled Suzhou (now Suzhou), and now it governs southern Jiangsu and Zhejiang and Fujian provinces. West Road governs Hongzhou (now Nanchang), Hunan Xiangshui, Zishui Valley and the area west of the host city. To the west of Yuanshui River Basin, it is divided into Guizhou Middle Road.
2. Name of the road. One of the fifteenth roads from Song to Dao. Jurisdiction over jiangning house (now Nanjing). Jurisdiction over Jiangxi province, south of Jiangsu Yangtze River, west of Zhenjiang, damao mountain and Changdang Lake, south of Anhui Yangtze River, and Yangxin and Tongshan counties in Hubei. Tianxi four years (1020), divided into east and west roads; East Road governs jiangning house, west of Anhui, south of Yangtze River, Zhenjiang of Jiangsu, damao mountain of Jiangxi, and east of Changdang Lake and Poyang Lake. West Road governs Hongzhou, Poyang Lake in Jiangxi, all places west of yingtan-Xiamen railway line, Yangxin and Tongshan counties in Hubei.
3. Ancient provincial names. In the second year of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty (1645), it was changed to Nanzhili in Ming Dynasty. Jurisdiction over jiangning house (now Nanjing). Xikang six years (1667), divided into Jiangsu and Anhui provinces. But for a long time after the enfeoffment, the two provinces were customarily called jiangnan province. It should be pointed out that the province includes a large area of northern Jiangsu and Huaibei.
Edit the historical origin of this paragraph.
Jiangnan in history
There was a saying of Jiangnan in the pre-Qin period. Until the Sui Dynasty, the Central Plains was still the center of geographical coordinates, and Jiangnan often referred to Hunan and Jiangxi. The establishment of Jiangnan Road in Tang Dynasty was later divided into Jiangnan East Road, Jiangnan West Road and Guizhou Middle Road, which became the beginning of defining the meaning of modern Jiangnan. Later, Jiangdong became the proper name of Jiangnan (that is, small Jiangnan or narrow Jiangnan), and Jiangnan Road became wide Jiangnan (that is, big Jiangnan).
The evolution of administrative regions named after "Jiangnan" in history is as follows: before the Tang Dynasty, the area referred to by the word Jiangnan included Jiangnan and the vast areas along the Yangtze River, including Jingzhou (southeastern Hubei, Hunan) and Yangzhou (southern Jiangxi, Anhui, Fujian, southern Jiangsu, Shanghai and Zhejiang). Emperor Taizong established Jiangnan Road, covering the whole middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, south of the Yangtze River and Guizhou and Fujian. Tang Xuanzong subdivided Jiangnan Road into Jiangnan West Road (southeastern Hubei, Hunan and Jiangxi, southern Anhui) and Jiangnan East Road (Fujian, southern Jiangsu, Shanghai and Zhejiang). Jiangnan West Road (most of Jiangxi, southeastern Hubei) and Jiangnan East Road (northeastern Jiangxi, southern Anhui and Nanjing) were established in the Song Dynasty. The provinces in the south of the Yangtze River were established in the early Qing Dynasty (1645- 1667), but they included a large area in the north of the Yangtze River. Later, it was divided into Jiangsu Province and Anhui Province.
Jiangnan in a narrow sense and Jiangnan in a broad sense
Jiangnan in a broad sense refers to the whole Jiangnan area in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, that is, Jiangnan Road excluding southern Hunan, southwestern Jiangxi, Guizhou and Fujian. Including the narrow sense of Jiangnan, the north of Jiangxi, the south of the Yangtze River in Hubei and the north of Hunan. But some areas in Fujian are sometimes called Jiangnan. Jiangnan in a broad sense was widely used in ancient times, for example, Du Fu wrote "Meet Li Guinian and Go Down the River" in Changsha. Jiangnan in a broad sense is also used in modern times. For example, Jiangnan in weather forecast refers to Jiangnan in a broad sense; The three famous buildings in Jiangnan (Yellow Crane Tower in Wuhan, Yueyang Tower in Yueyang and Wangtengting Pavilion in Nanchang) refer to Jiangnan in a broad sense.
In a narrow sense, Jiangnan refers to Suzhou and Hangzhou as the core areas, including southeastern Anhui Province, western Jiangxi Province, most parts of Zhejiang Province and southern Jiangsu Province. Some areas north of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, such as Yangzhou, are located in the north of the Yangtze River, but their economy and culture are similar to those of Jiangnan, and they can also be regarded as part of Jiangnan in the cultural sense. But it is not the Yangtze River basin, and it is considered to be some areas south of Taihu Lake or even south of Qiantang River, such as Shaoxing and Ningbo. Although Nanjing is located in the south of the Yangtze River, it does not belong to the south. Jiangnan region has a specific language and culture, and basically all speak Wu dialect.

Question 4: Where does Jiangnan mean? The so-called Jiangnan generally refers to "south of the Yangtze River". During the Spring and Autumn Period, Warring States Period, Qin and Han Dynasties, it generally referred to southern Hubei, including Hunan and Jiangxi, and in modern times it specifically referred to southern Jiangsu and Zhejiang. In addition, there were ten Zhenguan roads in the Tang Dynasty, including Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian, Hunan, the southeast of Zhenjiang, Jiangsu, and Jiangnan, Anhui.
So it is correct to exclude Yangzhou. Yangzhou is indeed in Jiangbei. Moreover, Yangzhou has not been given a particularly good name. They are all places where fireworks and Liuxiang sell gold, not to mention the salt merchants' resident. Except for the recommendation of Zhu Ziqing in modern times, few people think that Yangzhou belongs to Jiangnan.
Jiangnan refers to the area beautified by literati. Mainly centered on Suzhou and Hangzhou, the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River are Jiangnan.
Question 5: What areas does Jiangnan include? Jiangnan, which is usually referred to now, takes Nanjing to Suzhou as the core, including parts of Anhui, Jiangxi and Zhejiang south of the Yangtze River, namely, southern Jiangsu, northern Zhejiang, southern Anhui and northern Jiangxi; In a narrow sense, Jiangnan refers to the Yangtze River Delta region with southern Jiangsu as the center.

Jiangnan in history
There was a saying of Jiangnan in the pre-Qin period. Until the Sui Dynasty, the Central Plains was still the center of geographical coordinates, and Jiangnan often referred to Hunan and Jiangxi. The establishment of Jiangnan Road in Tang Dynasty was later divided into Jiangnan East Road, Jiangnan West Road and Guizhou Middle Road, which became the beginning of defining the meaning of modern Jiangnan.

The provinces in the south of the Yangtze River were established in the early Qing Dynasty (1645- 1667), but they included a large area in the north of the Yangtze River. Later, it was divided into Jiangsu Province and Anhui Province.
Jiangnan in a narrow sense and Jiangnan in a broad sense
The broad definition of Jiangnan originates from the division of Jiangnan Road in Tang Dynasty, which refers to the whole area south of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, that is, Jiangnan Road except southern Hunan, southwestern Jiangxi, Guizhou and Fujian. Including the narrow sense of Jiangnan, the north of Jiangxi, the south of the Yangtze River in Hubei and the north of Hunan. Some areas in Fujian are sometimes called Jiangnan. Jiangnan in a broad sense was widely used in ancient times, for example, Du Fu wrote "Meet Li Guinian and Go Down the River" in Changsha. Jiangnan in a broad sense is also used in modern times. For example, Jiangnan in weather forecast refers to Jiangnan in a broad sense; The three famous buildings in Jiangnan (Yellow Crane Tower in Wuhan, Yueyang Tower in Yueyang and Wangtengting Pavilion in Nanchang) refer to Jiangnan in a broad sense.
Now the specific Jiangnan refers to the narrow sense of Jiangnan (small Jiangnan), that is, it does not include Jiangnan East Road in Fujian Province and southern Zhejiang, and takes Taihu Lake as the center, including Suzhou, Changzhou, Wuxi and Hangzhou. Nanjing was also the core area of Xiaojiangnan in ancient times, but because residents speak Jiangbei dialect, it is often not considered as a part of Xiaojiangnan in Wu dialect area in modern times. Some areas north of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, such as Yangzhou, are located in the north of the Yangtze River, but their economy and culture are similar to those of Jiangnan, and they were once regarded as the core areas of Jiangnan. However, some areas that are not in the Yangtze River basin but are sometimes considered as the small Jiangnan area are south of Taihu Lake and even south of Qiantang River, such as Shaoxing and Ningbo.
Question 8: Where does Jiangnan mean? South of the Yangtze River? Geographical Jiangnan refers to the Yangtze River Delta, including Yangzhou, Zhenjiang, Nanjing, Wuxi, Danyang, Shanghai, Suzhou, Hangzhou,
Huzhou, Shaoxing and other big places. Culturally, Jiangnan has a wider scope, including southern Anhui, southern Jiangsu and northern Zhejiang.
Where is Jiangnan?
The place name "Jiangnan" existed as early as the pre-Qin period, but its modern significance originated from the Tang Dynasty. Emperor Taizong divided the world into ten roads, including Jiangnan Road. Tang Xuanzong subdivided Jiangnan Road into Guizhou Middle Road, Jiangnan West Road and Jiangnan East Road, among which Jiangnan East Road includes Fujian, Zhejiang, southern Jiangsu and southern Anhui. Since then, the center of authentic Jiangnan has gradually stabilized in today's southern Jiangsu and northern Zhejiang, until today.
From "Jiangdong" and "Jiangzuo" to "Jiangnan"
Among the various place names of the Ganges River, the most wonderful one should be "Jiangnan".
This place name existed as early as the pre-Qin period. But in the Sui Dynasty, the geographical scope it referred to was quite different from that later. At that time, it mainly refers to Hunan and Jiangxi in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River.
The modern significance of "Jiangnan" originated from the Tang Dynasty. This place used to be called Jiangdong. In the story Farewell My Concubine, the heroic and affectionate Chu overlord Xiang Yu was defeated by the rogue emperor Liu Bang. He felt that he was "ashamed to see his elders in Jiangdong" and would rather commit suicide than flee to his hometown. That "Jiangdong" actually refers to the "Jiangnan" of later generations. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, due to the tradition of China, place names were named "Jiangzuo" by posthumous title, and were frequently used in public and private documents and various works and literary works.
From "Jiangdong" and "Jiangzuo" to "Jiangnan", it originated from the ten Taoist temples in Tang Dynasty. At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the state and county two-level system was implemented. Because there are too many States, reaching more than 300, the central government is very troublesome to manage-it is said that Emperor Taizong had to write the names of the governors on the screen because he could not remember them. Therefore, in the first year of Zhenguan (AD 627) at the beginning of his accession to the throne, he divided the world into ten monitoring areas, which he called "Tao". Among them, North Fifth Road and South Fifth Road. Jiangnan Road includes a large area south of the Yangtze River, north of Nanling, west to Guizhou and east to the sea. Because the number of divisions this time is too small, most of the southern districts are too vast. In the 21st year of Kaiyuan (AD 733), the number of roads increased to 15. Jiangnan Road is divided into Guizhou Middle Road, Jiangnan West Road and Jiangnan East Road from west to east, among which Jiangnan East Road includes Fujian, Zhejiang, southern Jiangsu and southern Anhui.
"Regional Discrimination" in Tang Dynasty
People in the Tang Dynasty had very interesting ideas about various regions. At that time, people emphasized the regional differences and always talked about the north and the south, but it was often "Saibei" and "Jiangnan" that were cited as comparisons. For example, "The flowers and willows in the south of the Yangtze River are your songs, and I only know the smoke and dust in Saibei" (Wang's trip).
We know that "Saibei" is a long and vast area extending from the east of Liaoshui to the west of Helan Mountain and Liupanshan Mountain. It always reminds people of harsh natural environment, such as cold, sandstorm, desert and cruel human environment, such as war and bones. Jiangnan, on the other hand, is not located at the southernmost tip of the south. It is pulled out because it is at the other extreme of environmental quality. Since the Southern Dynasties, it has always been a famous "land of beauty".
This contrast makes us have an interesting discovery, that is, in the north, the relationship between regions is roughly parallel, and no region can openly appear as a representative of the north. At that time, the prominent regional prejudice was the opposition between "Shandong" (east of Taihang Mountain) and Guanzhong, where people often made fun of each other and quarreled endlessly. Historically, Emperor Taizong once talked about how Shandong people are and how Guanzhong people are at banquets. There are many similarities and differences between his words. A minister named Zhang Xingcheng immediately knelt down and said, "I heard that the emperor is at home all over the world, so it should not be limited." Emperor Taizong suddenly woke up.
In the south, the gap between regions is obvious. Needless to say, because of the vast land, people in the Central Plains feel that they can only get half a life if they go there. The land of Bashu in the southwest, because of its seclusion in the southwest corner, is called "difficult to get around the road", which gives people a bad impression. This can be seen from the famous sentence of Haifu, "Hanging in the northeast alone, drifting southwest between heaven and earth".
Is Yangzhou "Jiangnan"?
What really reminds people of the beauty of the south is "Jianghuai". However, this place name contains this meaning, and it is already here ... >>
