Abstract | Ou-yang Xun (557-641) is one of the most important calligraphers in Early Tang Dynasty. He constructed the paradigm of regular script and was highly praised by lots of contemporary literati. Between Late Tang and Early Northern Song (about 9-11th century), the trend of learning Ou-yang Xun’s calligraphical style aroused. This wave was so tremendous that even the neighboring countries were infected, such as Japan and Silla. At the same time, there were many Ou-yang Xun’s style calligraphy works to be created in Liao Dynasty, which also demonstrated the huge influence of Ou-yang Xun in these times.
In the past research of Chinese calligraphy history, scholars didn’t give Liao Dynasty enough concern. Through analyzing the calligraphy style of Liao tablet inscriptions unearthed in recent years, this articletry to conduct some primary research on history of Liao calligraphy. Hope this study could attract more concern on this topic. |
