Every era has its cultural pursuit, and every culture contains its specific inner spirit. China's traditional culture is based on the principle of the composition of man and the world, and takes the three talents of heaven, earth and man as the principle of the relationship between man and nature, forming the concept of the unity of man and nature, and expressing the pursuit of ethical and humanistic spirit by respecting "the sage inside and the king outside".
This is quite different from the scientific spirit formed by advocating conceptual logical reasoning in western countries. The former pursues the consciousness of inward reflection, while the latter pursues the spirit of outward exploration. Because the two civilizations have different cultural compositions and different ways of thinking, they have formed artistic tendencies with different cultural connotations. As one of the unique art forms in China, China's calligraphy embodies the inner heritage and spiritual temperament of China people, and fully shows the core of China's traditional culture.
It can be said that calligraphy is a phenomenon of China traditional culture, but it is not the only phenomenon. The inner spirit of this phenomenon must be nurtured under the background of China traditional culture. In the field of calligraphy, the inner spirit of calligraphy changes with the cultural spirit of the times. From the perspective of China's traditional cultural spirit, the inner spirit of China's calligraphy presents regional cultural characteristics, and it is this regionality that preserves its unique characteristics.
