3. Calligraphy in Han Dynasty: Han Dynasty is divided into Western Han Dynasty and Eastern Han Dynasty. In the 300 years of Han Dynasty, calligraphy experienced the evolution from brush seal to official seal, from official seal to Cao Zhang, original works and running script. By the end of Han Dynasty, China's writing of Chinese characters was basically completed. Lishu is a widely used script in Han Dynasty.
4. Wei-Jin calligraphy: Wei-Jin is an important historical stage to complete the evolution of calligraphy. It is a well-prepared generation of many forces. So far, Han Li has finalized the basic form of square Chinese characters. The emergence, development and maturity of official script gave birth to the original script (regular script), while cursive script sprouted almost at the same time as official script. Real calligraphy, running script and cursive script were shaped in Wei and Jin Dynasties.
5. Calligraphy in the Southern and Northern Dynasties: Calligraphy in the Southern and Northern Dynasties entered the era of North Monument and South Post. At this time, Wei Bei was the best calligrapher. Weibei is the general name of inscription calligraphy in the Northern Wei and Southern and Northern Dynasties, and it is the transitional period from official script in Han Dynasty to regular script in Tang Dynasty.
6. Calligraphy in the Tang Dynasty: Calligraphy in the Tang Dynasty inherited and innovated the previous generation as a whole. Regular script, running script and cursive script all entered a new situation in the Tang Dynasty, with outstanding characteristics of the times, and their influence on later generations far exceeded that of any previous era.
6. Calligraphy in the Five Dynasties: The situation of division and chaos lasted for 54 years, during which there were frequent wars. Although the art of calligraphy continued after the end of the Tang Dynasty, due to the influence of war and fire, it formed a general trend of decline.
7. Calligraphy in Song Dynasty: From 960 to 1279, the development of calligraphy was relatively slow, reaching more than 300 years.
8. Calligraphy in the Yuan Dynasty: Looking at calligraphy in the Yuan Dynasty, its great achievements are still in the real cursive script. As for turning profits, although there are several famous artists, they are not very good. This kind of calligraphy with truth, line and cursive script as the mainstream didn't change until the Qing Dynasty.
9. Calligraphy in the Ming Dynasty: Like the Song Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty was also a prosperous generation of calligraphy. The passing and engraving of law posts is very active. Throughout the Ming dynasty, most of the characters were running scripts, which could not be traced back to Qin, Han and Northern Dynasties. The works of seal script, Li, Bafen, etc. are almost extinct, and all regular scripts are exquisite.
10, Calligraphy in Qing Dynasty: It is another renaissance period in the history of calligraphy development, echoing the Tang Dynasty. The development of calligraphy in Qing dynasty can be roughly divided into three stages according to time. The early period (around Shunzhi, Kangxi and Yongzheng) is the continuation of the book style in Ming Dynasty, which belongs to the later semester. In the middle period (around Qianlong, Jiaqing and Daoguang), epigraphy turned from prosperity to decline, and epigraphy gradually rose; The later period (around Xianfeng, Tongzhi, Guangxu and Xuan Tong) is the revival period of stele study.
1 1, Modern Calligraphy: In today's diversified calligraphy world, the sublimation of calligraphy art to the height of conceptual change is undoubtedly a great progress. The modernity of calligraphy does not simply depend on the external appearance such as the form, structure and lines of calligraphy art, but on the modernization of internal spirit. The modern spirit of calligraphy refers to the value orientation of modern society embodied and transmitted by contemporary calligraphy art.
