Evolution of the Calligraphy Fonts

The evolution of the Calligraphy Fonts

The structural form of Chinese characters has undergone many changes. The evolution of scripts started from the ease of writing, and the general trend was to simplify.

Unearthed pre-Qin scripts tell us that since the Shang Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty, the script has been passed down from one generation to the next. Spring and Autumn and Warring States period,? The writing of the heterogeneous? Along with the? The vassal power politics? , the writing of each country is increasingly regionalized. Qiu Xigui said: ? The scripts of the late Shang and early Zhou, the late Spring and Autumn period and the early Warring States period are so similar that it is often difficult to distinguish between them. The upper limit of the Qin (state) system of writing era is the Spring and Autumn period, and the content is partially duplicated with the Western Zhou Spring and Autumn period of writing.? The ancient scripts of the pre-Qin period can be regarded as a separate stage of script development.

At that time, it is not known how people named the script at that time. According to scholars of the Han Dynasty, there were ? The Great Seal of the Prehistoric Period? The Prehistoric Script? Guwen? and? Qizhi? (Xu Shen, "Shuowen Jiezi Shu"). These names have evolved into a variety of later names, such as Tadpole Book (Wei Heng, Western Jin Dynasty, The Four Books), Ancient Seal Character (Wang Chuan, Southern Dynasty, The Scripts of Chuan), and Preliminary Book (Yu Yuanwei, Southern Dynasty, The Discourse on the Scripts). For the pre-Qin inscriptions unearthed in the 20th century, textual scholars call them ? oracle bone inscriptions? and Jinwen? and "Taowen" (pottery). The first is the "Tao Wen", which is the name given to the first Qin scripts. Warring States Script , or named after the writing material, or named after the era. Ancient traces of books, the same potential, ancient and modern named mixed, and even referred to a different, even if the words of scientists to the road, but also quite difficult.

After the abolition of the Qin dynasty, the six countries, to save the change of the seal of the Great Seal of the Small Seal as the main body, the common writing is the original in the Qin land of the prevailing scribe. In the Han Dynasty, which inherited the Qin system, the official script became the main form. It was also during the Han Dynasty that the Cursive Script, Running Script, and Regular Script appeared successively, and the formation of these three types of scripts was mostly intricately related to previous or contemporaneous scripts. During the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the period of font evolution was largely over.

The main fluid potential of the Chinese character is no more than the five major structural types: seal script, official script, cursive script, running script, and regular script. These five types of fonts, from occurrence to maturity of the time, there are long and short. Generally speaking, the seal type fonts are longer, the official script is comparable to the cursive script, and the running script and regular script are shorter.

Historically, the seal script, official script, and regular script have successively assumed the role of orthographic characters. Cursive and Running Scripts have been auxiliary calligraphic styles. If we divide the stages of development in the history of calligraphy by the forms of Chinese characters, they should be marked by the Seal Script, Official Script, and Regular Script.
