China's calligraphy was listed as the world's intangible cultural heritage at the fourth meeting of UNESCO's Intergovernmental Committee for the Protection of Intangible Cultural Heritage held from September 28th, 2006 to October 2nd, 2003/KLOC-0. Calligraphy is the art of writing Chinese characters and the cultural treasure of the Chinese nation, which shines brightly in the history of human cultural and artistic development.
China's traditional culture has a profound influence on China's humanities, history and everything, but that influence is gradually fading after all. It's just that the art of calligraphy is different. From beginning to end, from the inside out, it still retains the authentic Chinese style and Chinese style. It is the essence and shining example of China traditional culture.
Characteristics of cultural heritage
The biggest feature of intangible cultural heritage is that it is not divorced from the special way of life and production of the nation, and it is a vivid embodiment of national personality and aesthetic habits. It exists on the basis of human beings, with sound, images and skills as the means of expression and word-of-mouth as the cultural chain. It is the most fragile part of "living" culture and its tradition.
Therefore, for the inheritance process of intangible cultural heritage, people are particularly important. Intangible cultural heritage refers to all kinds of traditional cultural expressions and cultural spaces that people of all ethnic groups have passed down from generation to generation and are closely related to people's lives (that is, places where traditional cultural activities are held regularly or traditional cultural expressions are concentrated, such as song concerts, temple fairs and traditional festivals and celebrations).
