Features: This book primarily collects calligraphic works from Jin, Sui, and Tang dynasty calligraphers, supplemented by those from the Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties. It includes over 2,800 common Chinese characters, totaling nearly 18,000 cursive calligraphic works. The characters collected are mostly modern cursive script, with only a very small number of Zhang Cursive script. Each Chinese character is limited to a maximum of nine cursive calligraphic works. The calligraphic works of Jin dynasty calligraphers are all converted from rubbing copies to positive characters, turning white characters into black characters. The calligraphic works of calligraphers from the Sui dynasty and later are all selected from original ink copies.
