Running script is a general term, which is divided into running script and running script. It is developed and originated on the basis of regular script, a font between regular script and cursive script, in order to make up for the shortcomings of slow writing speed and illegible cursive script. "Go" means "go", so it is not as scribbled as cursive script, nor as straight as regular script. Whether it is cursive or cursive in essence. Those with more patterns than grass patterns are called "running patterns", and those with more grass patterns are called "running grass". Running script has high practicability and artistry, and regular script is a number of characters, which has high practicability and relatively insufficient artistry; Comparatively speaking, cursive script is highly artistic, but its practicality is relatively insufficient.
Appreciation of classical ancient poetry, running script, writing brush and calligraphy
Running script is a writing style between regular script and cursive script, which appeared in the late Western Han Dynasty and the early Eastern Han Dynasty. The name of the running script first appeared in Wei Heng's Four-body Calligraphy in the Western Jin Dynasty: "I studied with Zhong * * * * and Hu * * * and Zhao * * *." Zhang Huaiguan's Shu Duan in the Tang Dynasty recorded: "A calligrapher is like Liu Desheng. That is, the book is small and fake, and the affairs are simple and popular, so it is called a running account. " Zhang Huaiguan also said in "On Books": "Husband's calligraphy is neither grass nor true, leaving the party and avoiding circles, and caring about seasonal Mencius. Those who are true are called true, and those who bring grass are called grass." In the Ming Dynasty, Feng Fang had a more vivid description in Ji Shu: "Write without stopping, write without engraving, gently turn and press again, like running water, without interruption, for business will last forever." Because of its unique artistic expression and wide practicability, running script has been favored and widely circulated since its birth. After the golden period of Wei and Jin Dynasties and the development period of Tang Dynasty, running script reached a new peak in Song Dynasty and gradually occupied the mainstream position in various calligraphy styles. Throughout the long history of calligraphy, the development of seal script, official script and regular script has ups and downs, while running script is immortal, which has always been a prominent study in calligraphy. Great calligraphers of past dynasties wrote a glorious history of running script development.
