2. Creative background: China has a special textbook for enlightenment literacy for a long time. There were Cang and Zhang in the Qin Dynasty, Zhang in the Han Dynasty, Zhang in Jiafu, Zhang in Cai Yong, and Zhang in the Three Kingdoms period. However, due to various problems in circulation in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, its authority was not as good as before, and Gu Ting, Gu You and other enlightening books appeared, with limited readability. It is against this background that thousands of words came out.
In the Southern Dynasties, in order to teach the king calligraphy, Yin was asked to develop 1000 different characters from Wang Xizhi's works, each with a piece of paper, and then these out-of-order rubbings were given to him, which were compiled into rhymes with content. This is the thousand-character script, which was circulated in 2 1 century for more than 400 years.
3. Influence: Thousand-Character Works is an early textbook in China. Because it covers astronomy, geography, nature, society, history and other aspects, it is the best reading material for enlightening children and a vivid and excellent encyclopedia. It has been circulated for 1400 years, which shows that it is not only a widely circulated children's book, but also an integral part of China's traditional culture. After the Tang Dynasty, the form of the thousand-character script was also widely adopted and studied, and a large number of works named after the thousand-character script appeared. For example, in Tang Dynasty, the monk Yijing compiled Thousand Characters in Sanskrit, in Song Dynasty, Hu Yin wrote Thousand Characters in narrative, in Yuan Dynasty, in Xia Taihe and Ming Dynasty, in Ming Dynasty, in Adult Fu of Thousand Characters, and in Lu Cai. These so-called thousand-character essays have different contents, but they are all named as thousand-character essays, which shows the great influence of thousand-character essays.
