The Origin of Chinese Calligraphy

The origin of calligraphy, argued through the examination, which can only be a cultural phenomenon. What exactly is a situation? I think: the beginning of nothing, and then slowly have a language, and then want to record things to communicate with people, it produced symbols (can not be called words), and slowly agreed to form the text; later writing people found that there is beauty and ugliness of writing, they want to write the word better, the result is that, from the big picture, the requirements for the writing more and more demanding and better; and then later on came out of a group of Then came a group of people who wrote very well, rising to the level of art, called calligraphy; and then, because the people who wrote from the perspective of good-looking people can not surpass the previous generation, they began to "change", and once changed, I do not know what has become, which formed the so-called "Calligraphy" now! The first time I saw it, it was a very good thing that I was able to see it!

The above is only one way, and the other way is complexity and simplicity: at the beginning, the symbols were simple, of course, simple; later, when the content of the record was required to increase, it began to become more and more complex; coupled with deepening of the understanding and the nature of the people's show-off, it became more and more complex; when the complexity was overdone, it began to be required to write simply and quickly, and then began to simplify it again. Through this process, there are various fonts of Chinese characters.
