Calligraphy is different from other art categories in technique. Calligraphy techniques are of course important. To learn calligraphy, you must first learn techniques, but you can't write high-grade words without high cultural accomplishment, let alone do research. Calligraphy talents need to have a variety of knowledge structures, and calligraphy discipline needs the support of multiple disciplines.
Calligraphy should not only study the specific content, form, development and change of the surface structure and deep structure of calligraphy, but also study the material and spiritual reasons of calligraphy and their internal relations and laws, and on this basis, establish a complete and scientific calligraphy discipline system and academic system.
