2. The word "calligraphy", simply put, is the method of writing. Because Chinese Chinese characters are different from the characters of other countries or nations, their glyphs originated from hieroglyphs. In the history of civilization development for thousands of years, they have experienced various stages of evolution such as oracle bone inscriptions, bronze inscriptions, small seal scripts, official scripts, and regular scripts. Modern simplified Chinese characters with closely matched shapes, sounds, and meanings have been formed. Therefore, what the Chinese call "calligraphy" refers to a unique art category in Chinese culture that has history, norms, evolution, creation, and high artistic connotation.
Calligraphy is an important part of traditional Chinese culture and a unique art form in China. Calligraphy makes people feel refreshed, cultivates their sentiments, and cultivates their moral integrity. As the saying goes, "Quietness is used to cultivate one's character, frugality is used to cultivate virtue." Calligraphy is a good form, channel, and method for cultivating one's character and virtue.
