What abilities does calligraphy need to express feelings?

Calligraphy, as a unique national culture in China, embodies the essence of China national culture. During its development, it not only fascinated poets who emigrated to other places because of its unique majestic beauty, but also was deeply favored by literati because of its elegant beauty. With the development of society and the progress of science, the reform of calligraphy education has become the voice of the times and the main theme of education. To inherit and carry forward this ancient art, we must attach importance to calligraphy education.

As a college student who loves calligraphy, after deeply understanding the present situation of modern calligraphy education, I can't help thinking about three questions: Can calligraphy, a star shining with the brilliance of traditional culture, still shine in the sky of quality education? How can we change the present situation of China's calligraphy? How does calligraphy affect the quality construction of college students?

China has always attached importance to calligraphy education in ancient times. Three-foot children have been studying since ancient times. In addition to teaching the "Three Character Classics", teachers should also stipulate calligraphy classes. The method of "3,000 classes a day" is indispensable. Up to the modern education reform, no matter the school rules of Guangxu and Xuan Tong dynasties, or the education system of Beiyang and the early Republic of China, there were special calligraphy classes, and it was no exception. However, what is the current situation of calligraphy education in China?

By comparing the longitude and latitude, we know that the present situation of calligraphy education in China is not optimistic. The situation is as follows: in some universities, calligraphy is no longer a compulsory course, but an elective course. In addition, the level of calligraphy teachers is generally low, which can not guide students to improve their calligraphy level, which to a certain extent dampened the enthusiasm of college students to learn calligraphy, thus leading them to dilute their idea of improving their calligraphy level; Many universities have established college students' calligraphy and painting associations, but only a handful of them can really help improve the level of calligraphy and guide students to participate in regular calligraphy competitions. Many universities are setting up various publications, such as Journal of Biology, Poetry and Selected Prose. But there are few special issues of calligraphy, and calligraphy is at best an illustration and a background in their so-called publications. Many schools hold calligraphy and painting exhibitions every year, but in the exhibition, before painting works, visitors flock to them, and before calligraphy works, there are very few visitors. The reason is that college students downplay the concept of calligraphy, lack the appreciation level of calligraphy, and can't resist the visual impact of paintings on them. Therefore, in similar calligraphy and painting exhibitions, this situation of "one family is happy and one family is worried" has become commonplace.

To sum up, it can be seen that the present situation of calligraphy education in China is not optimistic, which is not alarmist. China is the birthplace of calligraphy. However, calligraphy teaching lags behind foreign countries, especially Japan. Although the style, level and types of his calligraphy are not as good as those of China because of writing obstacles, the popularity of calligraphy education is far higher than that of China, and it is likely to compete for the hegemony of calligraphy. In China, the administrative department of education does not clearly stipulate that primary and secondary school students must have calligraphy, which reduces the requirements for college students. Therefore, many college students think that as long as they know English, computers and eloquence, they can ride the world, and calligraphy, a traditional art with profound cultural connotation, is not among the ones to improve their own quality. In the long run, it is really worrying.

In order to change the present situation of calligraphy education, publicize the importance of calligraphy and improve college students' understanding of calligraphy is imperative.

Calligraphy is the crystallization and symbol of China culture, with profound cultural connotation and great cultural charm. Historically, in its profound cultural heritage, calligraphy contains inviolable national dignity, lofty and powerful national consciousness and creative wisdom of self-improvement. Through calligraphy teaching, let college students know the lofty and profound philosophical truth of Chinese character culture and calligraphy art, which can stimulate their national pride, cultivate patriotic thoughts and feelings and shape perfect personality. China's thousands of years of calligraphy history not only gave us countless excellent works, but also left us a detached personality image. Wang Weizhi, the fifth son of Wang Xizhi, once said, "Writing three jars of water is just a bit like Wang Xizhi; Huaiqin had no money to buy paper, so he planted plantains widely and used plantain leaves instead of paper to make a burial. " This shows that calligraphy plays an important role in shaping personality. By studying calligraphy, college students' consciousness can be purified and sublimated. Fundamentally speaking, calligraphy education is an aesthetic education. With the deepening of calligraphy learning practice, college students' sensitivity, perception, resolution and creativity to beauty will be stronger, and their ability to appreciate calligraphy will also make a qualitative leap.

After learning that China's calligraphy plays an inestimable role in improving college students' comprehensive quality and cultivating their sentiment, it is particularly important to strengthen the calligraphy education for contemporary college students.

Calligraphy and calendar have two corresponding narrow definitions of "practicality" and "aesthetics". From the perspective of education, calligraphy begins with "Mongolian children can read and learn Chinese characters". Where there are words and writing, there must be beauty and evil. The beauty and evil in writing is both a realistic demand and an aesthetic evolution.

Nowadays, most college students are real beginners in calligraphy. How to get started? Is there a future after joining the company? Many college students who love calligraphy are worried. Since ancient times, many calligraphers have advocated the introduction of regular script, because regular script is the most standardized font among all fonts, and its strokes and structure are the basis of other fonts. Do you have to say it for thousands of years: start with regular script? The answer is: yes for the ancients, but not necessarily for contemporary college students. In ancient times, "Mongolian children learned to read and write", that is, "cultural learning" was also "art education", which complemented each other. They must be literate first, and regular script is the first choice. Regular script has no obvious aesthetic implication, which is in line with children's physiological development characteristics.

Today's college students, favored by heaven, say that they can't read is quite inappropriate; Eighteen or nine years old, an adult with mature physical and psychological development, so there is no physical problem of uncontrolled hands; As for psychology, "complete maturity" cannot be defined; But as far as aesthetic pursuit is concerned, college students have fully possessed this ability. Should college students' calligraphy be "imported from regular script"? The answer is that you can start with regular script or non-regular script, such as seal script, official script and running script. As long as the learning method is proper, it is not a problem. In addition, with their innovative consciousness, they often create their own styles in the process of practicing calligraphy, which is of great benefit to improving their interest in calligraphy.

With the rise of "calligraphy fever" in society and the deepening of quality education, it is no longer desirable for calligraphy education to play an important role in university lecture halls. Calligraphy is the essence of national culture, and vigorously developing calligraphy education is not only the need of spiritual civilization construction, but also the need of cultivating calligraphy professionals, and the need of popularizing and improving the quality of the whole people. As cross-century successors, we college students should pay more attention to cultivate their own sentiments, cultivate talents in all aspects, build their own comprehensive quality, and contribute to the development of calligraphy education in China.

First of all, calligraphy is an excellent cultural tradition in China for 5,000 years. It is integrated with China culture and Chinese national spirit. It has profound cultural connotation and is a wonderful flower in the world art forest. It is based on Chinese characters, involving language, literature, history, aesthetics and other aspects. It is also related to music and art. As China people, especially modern students, we have the responsibility and obligation to inherit this tradition and practice China's calligraphy well. If we can give guidance from the perspective of interest and knowledge, contemporary college students can increase a lot of knowledge and improve their knowledge and skills. In addition, choosing some famous works of past dynasties to give college students direct appreciation guidance can make students feel the artistic charm of ancient culture, thus stimulating their determination and confidence in inheriting and carrying forward national traditions and inspiring patriotic enthusiasm.

Secondly, calligraphy plays an important role in cultivating people's moral quality, physical and mental quality, intelligent quality, good study and living habits, personality shaping and aesthetic ability. As we all know, calligraphy is a unique traditional art in China, which has been deeply appreciated and loved by people for thousands of years. Why do people like her? Just because she can show people beauty and arouse people's feelings and associations about beauty, it is a combination of aesthetics and practicality. College students should define different pairs of beauty in their own minds. Because it is a virtue, we study it and create it. Yang Xiong in Han Dynasty once said: "Words are the paintings of the heart", that is to say, calligraphy expresses a person's inner world. Beautiful calligraphy can make the appreciator enjoy beauty through vivid and abstract lines, and can cultivate people's personality and temperament. Practicing calligraphy is actually a process in which calligraphers feel beauty with their eyes, explore beauty with practice, comprehend beauty with their hearts and create beauty with their hands. Lu Xun said: "China's calligraphy art is the pearl of the East. This is not a poem, but it has poetic charm. It is not a painting, but it is beautiful. It's not a dance, but it has a rhythm. It is not a song, but it has a singing melody. " He also said: "Chinese characters have three beauties, that is, the beauty of meaning is the beauty of feeling, the beauty of sound is the beauty of feeling ears, and the beauty of form is the beauty of feeling eyes." Therefore, learning calligraphy is an effective means of aesthetic education. As the saying goes, "everyone loves beauty." The beauty and ugliness of the face are innate, but the beauty of writing is acquired through hard work. Words are another tool for people. And with the development of society and the improvement of people's living standards, people are pursuing a high-quality life. Many people like to hang a painting and calligraphy at home to add some books, which is not only a decoration, but also a personal taste and a beautiful enjoyment. For children, if they are brought into the artistic conception of calligraphy beauty, they will be exposed and deeply influenced, and then there will be new discoveries and a shining self over time. How did these end up in the computer?

Thirdly, at present, most families in China are only children, and some families have poor self-care ability and are relatively withdrawn. Practicing calligraphy is a good way to adjust psychological quality and standardize behavior, which can make students enter a relatively static state. Today's students are not timid, but too careless, not serious and not attentive. While practicing calligraphy, we must devote ourselves wholeheartedly, be calm, correct posture, persevere, and over time, we can develop a good habit of being rigorous and serious. At the same time, the university stage is the stage lacking tenacity and endurance, which can also be obtained through writing exercises one by one, so as to correct the shortcomings of carelessness and carelessness, and thus develop good habits of perseverance, dedication, patience and meticulousness, and not afraid of difficulties. Facts have proved that students who receive calligraphy education can gain strong coordination and self-control ability, laying a good foundation for learning other disciplines and cultivating other skills.
