The expression of calligraphy
Human beings have written before calligraphy. From Oracle Bone Inscriptions to Zhong Dingwen, and then to Shi Guwen, the writing of ancient Chinese characters in China experienced a process from complex to simple, from concrete to abstract, and the unique art of calligraphy gradually sprouted. People generally divide calligraphy into five categories according to writing forms: official script, cursive script, official script, seal script and running script. Zhengshu, also known as regular script and real book. Its characteristics are: square shape, straight strokes, can be used as a model, hence the name. Began in the Eastern Han Dynasty. There are many famous regular script writers, such as Ou Ti (Ou Yangxun), Yu Ti (Yu Shinan), Yan Ti (Yan Zhenqing), Liu Ti (Liu Gongquan) and Zhao Ti (Zhao Mengfu). Cursive script, a convenient font. It began in the early Han Dynasty. What was commonly used at that time was "Cao Li", that is, scribbled official script. Later, it gradually developed and formed a kind of "Cao Zhang" with artistic value. At the end of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Zhi changed "Cao Zhang" to "modern grass", and the character style was formed in one fell swoop. In the Tang Dynasty, Zhang Xu and Huai Su developed into "weeds", with continuous strokes and changeable glyphs. Official script, also known as "official word" and "ancient book". It is a font produced on the basis of seal script to meet the needs of convenient writing. The seal script is simplified, and the uniform circle lines of the seal script are changed into straight strokes, which is convenient for writing. Divided into Qin Li (also known as Guli) and Han Li (also known as Jinli). The appearance of official script is a great change in ancient writing and calligraphy. Seal script is a general term for big seal script and small seal script. Dazhuan refers to Oracle Bone Inscriptions, Jinwen, Jinwen and Six Kingdoms, and retains the obvious features of ancient hieroglyphics. Xiao Zhuan, also known as "Qin Zhuan", is a commonly used character in Qin State and a simplified font of Da Zhuan, which is characterized by even and neat fonts and is easier to write than Shu Zhuan. In the development history of Chinese characters, it is a transition from Da Zhuan to Li Kai. Running script is a font between regular script and cursive script. It came into being to make up for the slow writing speed of regular script and the illegible cursive script. The brushwork is not as sloppy as cursive script, and it is not required to be as correct as regular script. Those with more patterns than grass patterns are called "running patterns", and those with more grass patterns are called "running grass". Running script began in the late Han Dynasty. Major seal script, minor seal script, official script, cursive script and running script are several important stages in the development of Chinese characters. However, as a calligraphy art, it has been preserved and formed many schools, with many famous artists and colorful artistic treasures. I hope LZ gives points ~ ~ ~! !
