The favorable conditions for the development of calligraphy in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

first, the previous dynasties accumulated a lot. After brewing since the Eastern Han Dynasty, these new styles of cursive script have matured in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and got rid of the influence of the official script era. Except for seal script and official script, cursive script, regular script, running script and other scripts have been stereotyped, and famous calligraphers have emerged in large numbers, and the fine calligraphy is amazing. The appearance of Wang Xizhi and Wang Xianzhi has made the calligraphy, cursive script and regular script develop to a mature stage. Second, the influence of metaphysics in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Metaphysics is light. In the great transformation of literati calligraphy, calligraphy theory has developed, which is the product of calligraphy entering the conscious stage and laid the foundation of ancient calligraphy theory in China. Third, the influence of the prevalence of Taoism in Wei and Jin Dynasties. With the prevalence of Taoism, all kinds of Taoist architectural inscriptions have also increased, and the inscriptions in this period are also very popular, such as Gu Lang Monument in Wu, Zheng Wengong Monument in Northern Wei and Li Zhongxuan Monument in Eastern Wei. These tablets are calm with pens, and their fonts are strong or strong, which is highly praised by later writers.
