Haengseo, and Choseo.\u003cbr\u003e Therefore, please note that each volume includes technical content explaining all the contents of the essays recorded in the chapters, including year, line, and beginning.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1.\u003cbr\u003e By looking at the diagrams, we have pointed out all the parts that beginners may overlook, so that you can complete the method of construction through this one book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1. \u003cbr\u003eThe effect of the illustrations is that they imprint the structure and style of the font on the minds of beginners through repeated explanations, which is a characteristic of this book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1.\u003cbr\u003e By taking the advantages of An Jin-gyeong's and Guyangsun's calligraphy methods, techniques such as Nobong and Jangbong, Gol and Yuk, Naeham, and Hyangbae are expressed together, allowing for the study of various calligraphy methods.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1.\u003cbr\u003e It was written by the author to guide his students, and it has helped them avoid the difficulties that beginners face, such as weathering and wear, and because it adheres to the ancient law, it serves as a guide to the classics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1.\u003cbr\u003e Running script adopted Wang Xizhi's calligraphy style, and in the process of passing down the style, it was corrected to correct some parts that had become somewhat forced due to the use of later generations' scrapbooking and patchwork.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1. \u003cbr\u003eIn the process of later generations collecting Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, some parts that were somewhat incomprehensible were discovered, so the author rewrote them in his own calligraphy style based on Wang Xizhi's calligraphy style to make them easier for beginners to understand.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1.\u003cbr\u003e The size of the script in Haeseo and Haengseo was designed from the perspective of a beginner, and was arranged in an appropriate size so that even the smallest details could be seen, which is a characteristic not found in other Thousand Character Classics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1.\u003cbr\u003e The running script was written based on Wang Xizhi's calligraphy style, allowing for easy understanding of the overall flow through the natural connection of brush strokes, thus allowing beginners to easily resolve the difficulties they would have encountered in writing epitaphs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1.\u003cbr\u003e The cursive script was passed down to later generations with the mission of showing the solemnity of Jiyeong's calligraphy, and every dot and stroke is imbued with sincerity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1. \u003cbr\u003eBecause the small letters in the cursive script are enlarged, it is easy to find the expressions and techniques of Jiyeong, which is very helpful for learning.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1.\u003cbr\u003e The cursive script explains Jiyeong's character and calligraphy in detail in the introduction, allowing beginners to broaden their knowledge of the history and theory of calligraphy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 1.\u003cbr\u003e Since diligently mastering this \"Jiyong Choseo Thousand Character Classic\" can serve as a guide for advancing to other cursive scripts, this \"Jiyong Choseo Thousand Character Classic\" was adopted as a required subject.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e You can preview some of the book's contents.\u003cbr\u003e

the page by technically using the brush hairs according to established brushwork techniques. \u003cbr\u003eIn terms of technique, the level of skill is revealed by how well one utilizes the subtle action of each individual brush hair.\u003cbr\u003e Also, in terms of spirituality, it is said that the best thing is to transcend worldly limitations and become one with the changes of nature, reaching the realm of nature and divine wind.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In modern times, science and technology have advanced by leaps and bounds, and it is impossible to predict what kind of world humanity will live in in the future.\u003cbr\u003e However, I don't know much about other fields of art, but when it comes to calligraphy, the best is not in the modern, cutting-edge era, but rather in the past, and even more so, in the very distant past.\u003cbr\u003e What is the reason?\u003cbr\u003e I think it's because humans have been faced with the problem of making a living since they were born into this world, and their brains have evolved to be biased in that direction as they pursue convenience. \u003cbr\u003eIf calligraphy were directly related to the problem of making a living in the modern era, I think that calligraphers who surpassed ancient times would have emerged not only in China but also in Korea and Japan.\u003cbr\u003e In today's fiercely competitive society, it's truly unfortunate that having a decent job is enough to be considered a winner, but you also have to survive the fierce competition within that job to become a winner.\u003cbr\u003e Around the 1980s, I saw a TV advertisement that said, \"If you're not first-rate, you can't survive.\" Now I can imagine how second-rate and third-rate people live these days.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In these circumstances, it may seem that only those on the outskirts of the competition can take an interest in calligraphy.\u003cbr\u003e But that's not necessarily the case.\u003cbr\u003e In 2020, the term \"work and life balance\" is often seen on TV these days.\u003cbr\u003e That is, it refers to “balance between work and personal life.” \u003cbr\u003eIn our country, during the industrialization period of the 1970s and 1980s, the only issue might have been survival, but these days, we can feel a shift toward a positive and philosophical lifestyle about how to live.\u003cbr\u003e If we have lived so fiercely until now, we deserve a little rest as a reward.\u003cbr\u003e If no one else can provide you with work-life balance, you have to find it yourself.\u003cbr\u003e Everyone knows how scary stress is, even without a doctor's advice, because it comes without you even knowing it.\u003cbr\u003e Work-life balance methods vary depending on individual preference, but if I were to recommend one method among many, this calligraphy would be a good one.\u003cbr\u003e I understand that in today's society, even in the midst of a busy schedule, individuals are given free time according to their own schedules. \u003cbr\u003eAt that time, when I sit down with a cup of tea in front of me and smell the subtle scent of ink, I find myself becoming one with the classics and, without even realizing it, becoming one with the people of the past.\u003cbr\u003e When viewed from today's perspective, the old always appears with unadorned purity.\u003cbr\u003e So, in these intense and difficult times, holding a brush and immersing yourself in its purity can be a form of healing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The classics mentioned here refer to the numerous epitaphs and legal tablets from the Zhou and Han dynasties, the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and the Sui and Tang dynasties in China.\u003cbr\u003e In that era, there were a huge number of famous classical materials called the Five Scripts: Seal, Lei, Regular, Haeng, and Cao.\u003cbr\u003e Although it is impossible to describe all the people and fonts of that time in detail, I hope that you will look up and refer to the fonts of that era one by one later. \u003cbr\u003eMost of the materials related to this have been published by the publishing company \"Wooram\", selecting only the important basic materials for beginners.\u003cbr\u003e You can easily get all of these at the Insadong calligraphy shop.\u003cbr\u003e In particular, Jiyong's \"Jincho Cheonjamun\", which is scheduled to be published this time, was compiled by combining regular script and herbal script for beginners and intermediate readers and above.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e There are two types of Thousand Character Classic in the calligraphy of famous Chinese families: Zhiyong's True Grass Thousand Character Classic from the Sui Dynasty and Huaisu's Grass Thousand Character Classic from the Tang Dynasty. The reason Zhiyong's Thousand Character Classic was chosen among them is because it is the basic calligraphy style that he faithfully wrote with his heart poured into each and every stroke, wanting to teach the calligraphy style to his students and future generations.\u003cbr\u003e His life and writing style are described in detail later. \u003cbr\u003eIn modern times, Han Seok-bong's Thousand Character Classic was widely distributed in Korea and was an indispensable book for those studying Chinese characters, but it became difficult to find it after the Ministry of Education's selection of practical Chinese characters was established.\u003cbr\u003e Here, I would like to briefly touch on Han Seok-bong's Thousand Character Classic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e During the reign of King Seonjo in the mid-Joseon Dynasty, Han Ho's exact position is unknown, but it is said that he was in charge of writing all diplomatic documents during the Imjin War and was praised by the Chinese.\u003cbr\u003e His pen name was Shifeng, and he was fascinated by the calligraphy of Wang Xizhi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty of China. He spent his entire life practicing his calligraphy, and was known as a master calligrapher at the time.\u003cbr\u003e At that time, in China, a man named Zhao Meng was also famous as a famous calligrapher.\u003cbr\u003e Since his pen name is Songseol, his handwriting is called Songseol style.\u003cbr\u003e The Songseol style was popular as a model for calligraphy for a full 200 years, from the end of the Goryeo Dynasty to the beginning of the Joseon Dynasty. \u003cbr\u003eAt that time, a great wind of change blew through the academic world.\u003cbr\u003e Song learning (Neo-Confucianism), promoted by scholars such as Cheng Zi and Zhu Zi of the Song Dynasty, was introduced to Joseon.\u003cbr\u003e Initially, the school's voice was not loud, but in the late Joseon Dynasty, the Neo-Confucian school expanded its influence and eventually established a strong base in politics and academia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e To briefly explain the main points of the doctrine they advocate, they say that humans are given a nature from heaven when they are born, and that all phenomena that heaven (nature) causes on its own are seen as nature (the way), and the reason why those phenomena occur is seen as reason.\u003cbr\u003e The reason for all these phenomena is that from the beginning, the opposing energies of yin and yang have been at work, creating all kinds of harmony.\u003cbr\u003e Such natural phenomena are called the nature of heaven, and it is human nature to receive that nature and faithfully follow it. \u003cbr\u003eThe nature of heaven can eternally govern the creation of all things because it is impartial and selfless, and for people to completely follow that nature is to practice that impartiality and selflessness.\u003cbr\u003e In other words, what nature does is to create all things without selfishness and to govern them fairly. If people follow this example and live according to their conscience without selfishness, the world will be at peace.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e However, although the theory they advocate is a very systematic and profound philosophical doctrine as a method of governing the mind, it cannot overcome the wall of reality when it comes to managing the broad fields of politics, economy, society, and culture.\u003cbr\u003e Moreover, the duality that constantly arises in their minds as they practice fairness and justice, trying to rationalize their selfish desires, leads to their own logic being biased and to the rejection of all other doctrines and cultures. \u003cbr\u003eAs this social climate became widespread and free cultural activities became impossible, creativity in all arts, including calligraphy, could not be displayed, and consequently, the development of calligraphy regressed.\u003cbr\u003e In particular, calligraphy was studied and developed by traveling back and forth to China and importing many famous calligraphy styles, but under the rigid structure of the time, there would have been no will or support to do so.\u003cbr\u003e In addition, the calligraphy of Wang Xizhi and Song Xue style that are widely spread in the world have already been corrupted and degraded by passing through countless hands.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In this situation, it is inevitable that Han Seok-bong would have studied the severely damaged font.\u003cbr\u003e So, it had to endure the public opinion that it lacked charm and class.\u003cbr\u003e The anecdote that Han Seok-bong's mother turned off the lights at night and said, \"I'll cut the rice cake, so you write,\" is nothing more than educational material that glorified Han Seok-bong. \u003cbr\u003eWhat most people call good handwriting is the ability to write a lot.\u003cbr\u003e Anyone who has been writing for several decades will usually be able to achieve good handwriting.\u003cbr\u003e However, calligraphy with class and elegance may appear to the average person as rather old-fashioned.\u003cbr\u003e All art is evaluated differently depending on the eye of the viewer.\u003cbr\u003e That is also the reason why public opinion and expert opinion on Han Seok-bong's handwriting differ.\u003cbr\u003e But it is clear that he has good handwriting.\u003cbr\u003e If Han Seok-bong's Thousand Character Classic is indeed an authentic copy written by him, it would be treated as a tremendous historical treasure.\u003cbr\u003e However, it was not used as a calligraphy textbook because it was manipulated by someone in later generations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This Thousand Character Classic is written in a four-character phrase format with a rhythm, without a single character being duplicated among the thousand characters, making it easy to memorize. \u003cbr\u003eTherefore, it can be said that it is an essential book that cannot be left out when studying Chinese characters.\u003cbr\u003e However, if the font used in the text had been a famous font from all time, it would have been an essential book, just like its contents. However, it is truly unfortunate that this is not the case.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e There are people who find this current situation very regrettable.\u003cbr\u003e He is Jin-ha Son, the CEO of the publishing company Wooram.\u003cbr\u003e As a publisher of calligraphy books, he was struck by the fact that this historically traditional Thousand Character Classic was disappearing, not only as a textbook for studying Chinese characters but also as a textbook for calligraphy. This led him to inquire with the author about the existence of Thousand Character Classic in the calligraphy style of famous families throughout history.\u003cbr\u003e So, when I learned that there was a Jincho Thousand Character Classic by Jiyeong and a cursive Thousand Character Classic by Hoeso, I made a decision right away. \u003cbr\u003eIncidentally, among the many books published by \"Wooram,\" none have been published in cursive script.\u003cbr\u003e So, I came to this conclusion while I was thinking about making that book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Thousand Character Classic being created this time is the beginner's Thousand Character Classic (upper and lower) created in the author's own handwriting (Hae and Haeng), and the next one, \"Jiyeong Cursive Thousand Character Classic\", which is centered around Jiyeong's cursive script, also has Jiyeong's cursive script written alongside it.\u003cbr\u003e Therefore, it was written only as a resource to help people understand what the main character was.\u003cbr\u003e Instead, the parts that can be followed by beginners are decorated with the author's own handwriting.\u003cbr\u003e There is a reason why it has to be that way. \u003cbr\u003eThe first reason is that Jiyeong's Jinseo is a type of Haeseo script, but it is close to the running script, and there are many places where the shape of the letters themselves are different compared to today's Jeongja script because it retains the remnants of the Northern and Southern Dynasties period, so it is somewhat difficult to take it as a model for Haeseo script. The second reason is that it is not possible to collect all 1,000 characters in the Haeseo script of the famous families of the past.\u003cbr\u003e So, I had no choice but to publish my own manuscript.\u003cbr\u003e I hope this selection will serve as a stepping stone for beginners to learn the calligraphy of the renowned masters of the past, and I also hope that our Lord, who is leading the development of calligraphy in our country, will be generous in his understanding.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e一山張大德\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:95%;padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e GOODS SPECIFICS \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6em;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eDate of issue:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 31, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003ePage count, weight, size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 144 pages | 251*348*20mm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9788973639717\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8973639714 \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e","brand":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43891743850538,"sku":"155648","price":28.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/2750\/5962\/files\/860d77d054d8479fb2627bb768545c89.jpg?v=1765340503","url":"https:\/\/librairie.coreenne.fr\/en\/products\/155648","provider":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
