The example, known as “pact, real, book”, is a model of “preamble” throughout the millennium in the history of calligraphy in china. It is an abbreviated version of the book, which is inspired by the inspiration of the lawn, and is a central carrier of the writing and cultural heritage of han. This group of " good books of commons " , which provides a clear picture of the definition, the development context and the cultural values of the example, has unmasked the millennium veil of this body。
I. Definition of the model: “domestic of norms”
The role of the model is to be found in a book that has been born since hammau for easy and standardized dissemination of adaptation. The example is a key simplification compared to the book's "silent oxytails, quest":
- flattening of pens: removal of the blouse decorations from the books, elimination of the oscillations from the pen, vertical extraction of paintings and simpler drawings
- structural rectification: from flat to square of books, the focus is more stable and better suited to visual aesthetic and practical needs
- functional regularization: the “model” — meaning “models, norms” — is widely used in the formal scenes of examinations, printing, inscriptions, etc., because it is clear and easy to write。
From the onset of hammau to modern usage, the example has grown from millennia to becoming the most viable handwritten style in chinese linguistics and the basic gateway to learning hymn today。
Ii. The development context of the model: three stages to witness the maturity of the book
The model was not developed overnight, and was broadly divided into three phases: ** wei jin-dpo (formation period), zhong tang (maturity period) and song yuan mingqing (mutual period)**, each with the birth of people and classics that affect future generations。
1. Wei jinh-north: the birth and formation of an example
This period was a critical stage in the transformation of the example from "residual residue" to "model independence":
- representing: zhong zhong zhong was honoured as the “father of the good book”, whose manifesto, the quarter of the year, was an example of an early example, and the drawings were still in the shape of a model, but they were already in the form of a positive one; wang zheng zhi and the son of the king zheng zheng further refined the model graph, and works such as the yellow quotuan theory made the role of the example more dynamic
- characteristics of style: stylish fonts, simplistic drawings, small amounts of curiosity, obscurantistic styles, and model “childhood form”。
2. Quintang: the book of excellence and maturity
The golden age of the book, with its full legal and diverse styles, has reached the artistic height of "fired green":
- all four of you: o'yun-jin (european body) is in the throes of the queen's magnificence, known as the “first example of the world”; yu shinan (cast) is warm, and the monuments of the monuments of the confucius are the best in the world; zhuo liang (sweet body) is in motion, and the holy order of the goose tower is soft and scrawny
- top of the middle tang: "the monopolies of the dobata " , "the monopoly of the dobata " , "the monopoly of the dobata " , "the monopoly " , "the monopoly of the willows " , "the monopoly of the pyramids" , "the monopoly of the temple of the secrets" and "the masculus of the masculus" , "the legal barpost of the future generations
- characteristics of style: complete law, precise writing, well-structured, distinct styles — dangerous europe, tanners, good willows, together building the model's “law system”。
Song won mingqing: the flow and personalization of the example
Instead of pursuing “extreme law”, the role of the role models in this period is to integrate personal styles and the aesthetics of the times and to diversify:
- song dynasty: influenced by the “unsatisfactory” book, with many examples, such as the works of soo-hyun, the "drunker pill" and huang jing, the "photo of the plumbs of the plumbs " , adding inspiration to the model
- won-dai: zhao meng yi (zhao zhu zheng) is after jin tang, and zhao zhu zheng zheng zheng zheng, the zhu zhu zheng zheng zheng zhu, has entered the zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zheng zhu, the zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhao zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu, the zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu, the zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu, the zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu, the zhu zhu zhu zhu zhu, the zhu zhu
- clarity: the example book is more personalized, with the appearance of “the attic” (which regulates the work of the staff but shows a slightly mediocrity) and of personality (e. G., the example of fushan, wang doo), which serves as a model for science, while the latter pursues artistic expression
- characteristics of style: looseness of law, prominence of personality, gradual transition of the example from “official norms” to “artistic expression”, laying the foundation for the development of a near-modern model。
The cultural value of an example: the “activated fossil” of a han chinese civilization
The example is not only a book, but also an important vehicle of chinese culture, and its value is reflected in three dimensions:
1. Core of the calligraphy tradition links
The example is the bridge that connects the ancient book of calligraphy: the ancient ploy of the upper book, the inspiration of the lower grass, the basis for learning about other books. - the “change” and “intention” of the grass can be understood only if the text, structure and law of the example are mastered. All generations of writers have based their work on examples, from zhong zhong zhong to zhao men zheng, to the modern shen yoon mo and zheng zheng, which have always been at the heart of the ethos。
2. Standardized vectors for chinese-language transmission
It's clear and easy to read, making it the best vehicle for the spread of chinese characters: from ancient tablets and sculptures to modern books, papers and electronic fonts, the example has always been a standard for the standardization of chinese characters, guaranteeing the spread of chinese culture across time and space. The printed songs and italicss that we use today are derived from the form and the law of ancient models。
3. Basic model of aesthetic education
The example, “standing straight and steady,” is an excellent model of aesthetic education. The exercise of a model not only enhances writing skills, but also fosters a sense of dedication, patience and aesthetic appreciation, allowing learners to appreciate the balance between “rules and freedom” in a single picture, which is an important reason why the model is still included in basic education。
Iv. Introduction to model learning: a path from common sense to practice
For beginners, learning the common sense of the book leads to the following paths:
1. Introduction to the selection: starting with the classic tang example, o-yang's 90th palace (screet), yan jianqing's dopota (swiss), willow king's temple (gang jian), zhao meng yi's courage (shu yi) are excellent models to avoid overdoping at the outset
(b) building the foundations of the pen: emphasis on the exercise of cross-cutting, vertical, side-stabbing, tuning, dots, hooks, folds, eight basic drawings, and the mastering of the core graphs: “performance, middle-strike, back-stabbing”
Structure exercise: following the principle of “stabilized, balanced, prioritized” and first one-size-fits-all, then one-size-fits-all, gradually mastering the model's structure patterns
Imogenous unions: front-to-back (precision imitation), back-to-back (memory font), end-to-end (incorporation into personal style), gradually moving from “preliminary” to “creation”。
Conclusion: the beauty of the example, between "rules" and "temperature"
The example is the “bottom colour” of the chinese calligraphy, which does not have the spirit of grass, nor does it have the pristine nature of the book, but it is the most solid carrier of chinese culture with the qualities of “normative, steady and clear”. It tells us that the beauty of calligraphy is never a deliberate display, but rather a search for balance in the rules, the passing of temperature in the drawings。
For every chinese-language user, learning and practicing examples is not only a way of improving writing skills, but also a way of touching the roots of chinese culture. May we all be able to experience the unique charm of the book in the end of the millennium, reading the chinese word。
