Disscuss For The Reason Of Cursive Script In Han Dynasty

《非草书》is an article of ZHAO YI which specially talks about cursive script. ZHAO YI used many words to describe the flourish of cursive script in his work. For example, "to treat the script as an import thing in his daily life, to learn and practice every minute, even forget food and sleep。He even wore out a writing brush and pills of writing ink in several days. When together with others, he did not play with others but practice cursive script on the ground with finger or in the wall with branches. He did not stop until his fingers bled."The description is a little exaggerated, but it reflected the flourish of cursive script in Han dynasty.Eastern Han Dynasty, the ancient capital of Chang'an in the area and its northwest region, there a number represented by Zhang Zhi cursive calligraphers, calligraphy in the history of the formation of the first school of calligraphy, both representatives of Zhang Zhi, also many of the following and the heirs, which stretches over more than a century of tradition for a long time, there is a clear and consistent regional art.Books finalized evolution in the Han Dynasty, and the emergence of representative calligraphers.Unearthed in kind from the point of view, the early Western Han Dynasty official script on bamboo and silk have been cursive of the phenomenon, to declare, in the Yuan Dynasty, the wood already see a complete reduction of the cursive word, EMPEROR, some words on the bamboo slips have been a more a pure cursive. Then, in the early Eastern Han Xinmang, cursive is more mature. Thus, the rapid development of cursive scripts was also attracted well-known accusations Zhao Yi Fu family. However, under the circumstances in cursive, with its convenience and ease of writing the book were "up to its nature, form the funeral" and sought after by people that, "wearing a skin scraping arm, claws Cuizhe, see gill bleeding, Utah endlessly cease, "imitated, and also appeared in this period the cursive masters in this field, such as Du degree, Cui Yuan and others, people" have to resort to Du, Cui Kai, the private book phase "[1]. Can be seen in the early Eastern Han Dynasty appeared to cursive cursive famous masters, and a considerable number of people to be proud of cursive. In addition, early Eastern Han Dynasty, there's also a famous calligrapher cursive Liu Mu, Du Cao, Cui Shi et al.Han Chinese are a small pen and ink a small livestock, vehicle and small writing, so often every word of the books cursive character, independence, can not make every word is linked, can those who later were presented, called "Zhang Cao." Zhang Cao already well established in the Eastern Han Dynasty, use was also common. Very proficient and fast cursive writing contributed to the chapter's second leap of development, people will make every word a separate gesture Zhang Cao indulgence, even between words are formed, the momentum through, the formation of this grass. The production of this grass is probably the late Eastern Han Dynasty. From the late Qin and early Han cursive phenomenon appears the "scribe grass" to the early Eastern Han Dynasty Chapter cursive fully mature, to the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhang Cao to this grass over by the completion of the development of the body than the speed of other books, the development of cursive scripts can be called quickly in such a short time to finish a book within the body have to change by the final maturity, he could not book a home Duzi a result of the efforts, but the collective wisdom of the whole community. Therefore, the cursive scripts to the final completion of the Han dynasty that was all the rage in the Han dynasty calligraphy, eventually led to this grass the evolution of this emerging body to complete the book.
