Calligraphy is a unique traditional Chinese art form and a pictographic representation system based on
Chinese characters.In the broad and profound Chinese traditional culture and art, the status of calligraphy is
unparalleled in the Chinese cultural circle. In China, calligraphy is not only a branch of fine arts, but also has
a long history as a unique humanistic wealth, and it still shapes the spiritual world of generations of Chinese
people.As an ancient civilization, China has always been praised by the world for its calligraphy. As the
carrier of Chinese calligraphy, Chinese characters carry the meaning of cultural inheritance.
China has formed a systematic, hierarchical and ideological calligraphy education concept and system,
and the understanding, content and implementation methods and approaches of the purpose and meaning of
calligraphy education are also being improved and developed. The value and function of calligraphy
education also reflects the true nature of Chinese art education.
