The Important Role of Calligraphy in Cultural Inheritance
First, the unique carrier of traditional culture
Calligraphy, as an important part of China traditional culture, has won the praise of the world for its unique artistic form and profound cultural connotation. It is not only an art of writing, but also a comprehensive reflection of China's history, philosophy, literature and aesthetics.
Second, the communication between nature and mind.
Calligraphy emphasizes that "the heart is right and the pen is right, and the pen is right." In the process of writing, calligraphers integrate their emotions, thoughts and mental states into each stroke. Through calligraphy, they can express their awe and love for nature and life, and also have a deep dialogue with themselves.
Third, the bridge between history and modernity.
Calligraphy has a long history, from Oracle Bone Inscriptions to Zhuan, Li, Kai, Xing and Cao, which has experienced thousands of years of evolution. It is a witness of history and a participant in modern society. Through modern calligraphy education and creation, calligraphy continues to play an active role in the inheritance and development of China culture.
Fourthly, the interpretation of oriental aesthetics.
Calligraphy pursues a dynamic balance and the beauty of rhythm. In each work, the length, thickness and straightness of strokes, as well as the size and weight of glyphs, all reflect the balance of Yin and Yang in China's philosophy and the inaction of Taoism. This kind of beauty is hard to imitate by other art forms.
