Extended data
Regular script is the most popular script in China feudal society from the Southern and Northern Dynasties to the Jin and Tang Dynasties. Before the appearance of regular script, China calligraphy had produced three styles: Da Zhuan, Xiao Zhuan and Li Shu. Generally speaking, the ancient characters before Xiao Zhuan are collectively referred to as Da Zhuan, including Oracle Bone Inscriptions, bronze inscriptions and six languages except Qin in the Warring States Period. Xiao Zhuan is a popular script after Qin unified China. On the basis of Qin script, refer to other vassal scripts. In order to facilitate writing, it is standardized and unified. This is the first standardized regular script in the history of calligraphy in China.
Therefore, in various calligraphy gardens in the Qin and Han Dynasties, the art of regular script (called official script at that time, that is, assisting seal script to write faster) was directly bred. According to its law, the development history of regular script in China can be divided into four periods: the germination period of regular script-Qin and Han dynasties, the development period of regular script-Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the prosperity period of regular script-Sui, Tang and Five Dynasties, and the maturity period of regular script-Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties.
