- Abstract
How do we connect the geographical theory of Huainan, which is full of fictional traits, with “governance” and the realization of its active governing and assistive purposes? In addition, there are two types of terrestrial forms in Huainan: order and chaos: What are the actual characters of the two forms? What are their relationships with each other? Why are they established? This paper explores these questions by interpreting the study of geography in Huainan as a set of spatial metaphors of values, based on the differentiation between “geography” and “geographical thoughts.” By deconstructing these metaphors, the author concludes that the study of geography in Huainan is a set of spatial systems grounded in the core of “wu wei” (inaction) in Taoism, and the ultimate yearning of Huainan is to regulate the laws of the world with a sacred order that guarantees the realization of such Taoist creed. In terms of its theoretical form, Huainan displays a unique pattern of originating from and tracing back to Taoism.
