China's calligraphy, do you think some modern people have surpassed the ancients?

China's calligraphy, I think it is difficult for modern people to surpass the ancients. Comparing the calligraphy level of modern people with that of ancient people, we can compare it from the aspects of learning time, social background and cultural tendency. Based on these factors, it is difficult to surpass the ancient calligraphy level.

First, compare the learning time of calligraphy between modern people and ancient people. Ancient people were limited by the development level of productive forces at that time, and what they could learn in childhood was limited. Unlike many English, piano and various interest classes that modern people learn, the enlightenment of ancient people is mainly calligraphy and writing. In ancient times, there were no such portable hard pens as modern ones, including pens and gel pens. What you hold in your hand is a simple brush, and what you put in your study is a traditional Four Treasures of the Study. Therefore, calligraphy is very important to them, and the assessment of calligraphy level is also essential for ancient children, which are incomparable to modern people.

Secondly, the ancient social background highly advocated calligraphy. Judging from the ancient imperial examination system, calligraphy is also an essential subject. And in the imperial examination papers, the examiner will also attach great importance to the examinee's handwriting. If you can't even write the calligraphy well, even if the content is excellent, it is difficult to win more. Especially in the Tang Dynasty, calligraphy was highly respected, and great calligraphers such as Wang Xizhi were placed in a high position.

finally, the cultural tendency. Ancient calligraphy is also closely related to culture. A scholar's accomplishment is inextricably linked with calligraphy. To be an outstanding scholar, the foundation of calligraphy is also essential.

Based on the three main factors, namely, the learning time and start of calligraphy between ancient people and modern people, social background and cultural tendency, we can conclude that the calligraphy attainments of ancient people are beyond the reach of modern people. Modern people still have a long way to go to improve the level of calligraphy.
