Is Japanese calligraphy handed down from China?

The so-called calligraphy is China's calligraphy, and Japanese calligraphy came from China. Japan didn't invent pseudonyms in Nara era, so the Japanese wrote running script and cursive script, imitating the brushwork of Wang Xizhi and others. In the early days of Ping 'an, pseudonyms began to appear. Although the upper class writes Chinese characters, they are somewhat Japanese in style. Konghai is the founder of Japanese calligraphy, that is, "Zeng studied calligraphy from Han in Tang Dynasty, and was known as' Wubi Monk'". The so-called "five strokes" are the five strokes in Han's "Theory of Giving a Pen", which is named after learning these five strokes. It is said that when he was in the Tang Dynasty, Xianzong asked him to fill in the missing words in Wang Xizhi's calligraphy on the palace screen. Konghai and Orange Tan Shi are collectively called "three tricks". Konghai's calligraphy was passed on to Xiaoye by Emperor Emei. Later, Xiao Ye Feng Dao (890-966 AD), Fujiwara Saori (904-998 AD), Fujiwara Hang Cheng (972- 1027 AD) and other cursive masters appeared, collectively known as the "Three Traces". Influenced by Wang Xizhi, Feng Dao, Xiao Ye, has the theory of "the reincarnation of Xi". Known as "Zuoji", Fujiwara Xueyuan combines the advantages of Xiao Ye, Feng Dao and Wang Xizhi's calligraphy to form an elegant and gentle calligraphy style. "Shan Zhi" completely got rid of the style of China's calligraphy, and changed from an ancient and vigorous tang style to a rich and beautiful Japanese style. Like other arts of this era, it represents the independence of Japanese culture.
