"Crane Ming"

Let's first read the original text of the "Crane Ming":

Crane Shou does not know his jiye, nongchen is old in Huating, and A year is in Zhu Fang. Heaven for its attempt, I xiang lonely Koye? Xi snatched yu xianhe no 遽也. Nai Li with a scarf of Xuan Huang, hidden under the Zi Mountain, the Immortal Family has no hidden ambitions, and I wait for the immortal words of the seal of the Standing Stone: Xiang This Fetal Bird, the Truth of the Floating Hill, the Descent of the Mountain Yin, the Sound of HuaBiao. Nishitake Jurisprudence, Yukidan's birthday. It's as if things are also subtle. Mingyu dissolves, Xianhe goes to Xin, left to take Cao Guo, right to cut Jingmen, after the torrent, before the solid heavy situation, Yu wants to be speechless, Er also He Ming? It is advisable to show it directly, but it will enter the ning, gather the true couple, and make the name of the fistula.

Translated into the vernacular, it roughly means something like this:

In the seventh year of Xianhe (332), the master was killed in Huating (Songjiang), but two years later he was killed in Zhufang (Zhenjiang), which means death. The life expectancy of the crane is supposed to be immortal, but now it is not yet the year of destiny, but it has suddenly died, which is really unacceptable and sad.

Why did Heaven suddenly take away my love and not wait for me to soar in the sky with a crane? Woohoo! So I wrapped it up in Xuanhuang Silk Spar and buried it under Jiaoshan Mountain. Generally speaking, the Immortals of the Tao have a biography of life, and I also want to erect a stele to commemorate it and write an immortal inscription. Inscription: Although the crane is a mortal fetus, it is actually the embodiment of the floating hill immortals, flying down in San'in and singing in the street market.

Interpret the righteousness of the Taoists and point out life. Everything has a double solution, true and false, light and dark. Although Imazuru has passed away, he will travel through the clouds and go through the three rivers and five mountains. A thought, hidden in the bottom of my heart, I don't know if I can understand? If you give it bluntly, you will nag, lest you stir up the silence of one side. Therefore, I invite two or three close friends to be buried silently, and write an inscription to mourn it.

Second, where is the strength of the pen in "Crane Ming"? What can we learn from this?

The calligraphic pen of the Crane Ming is indeed extraordinary, truly reaching an extraordinary and extremely high realm. If you look closely, you will find that its brush strokes are crisp and clean, idyllic and melting, and the dot paintings are super elegant and flexible, with many changes; it has the infinite charm of ancient clumsiness and strange cliffs, fairy wind Dao bones.

There is both the strange indulgence of the calligraphy of the Northern Dynasty and the roundness and elegance of the calligraphy of the Southern Dynasty; there is both the thickness and simplicity of the Lishu and the dignified rules of the Calligraphy. Originating from the seal and attributing it to the xingkai, it is a classic of the kaili. Ancient and modern people who have learned to write have taken this as a teacher, and many scholars of various dynasties have passed it down through the generations.

Successive generations of calligraphers and critics, the praise for the "Crane Ming" is too much, it is really too numerous, here is the moment to pick a very influential talk.

For example, Huang Tingjian of the Northern Song Dynasty believes: ""Fistula Crane Ming", the ancestor of the big characters"; "The big characters are no better than the "Fistula Crane Ming", and the small characters Mo Xue is obsessed with frozen flies." ""Fistula", its victory is unattractive", "those who want to study books should take the character of Danyang's "Fistula Crane Ming" as the rule". From this, it can be seen that Huang Tingjian's penmanship of the spear euphorbia originally came from here.

Cao Shimian of the Southern Song Dynasty said in the "Genealogy of the Fa Ti": "The magic of jiaoshan's "Crane Ming" is the crown of the scribe. There is also a late Ming scholar Wang Shizhen who commented: "This inscription is simple and steep, majestic and flying, and the hero of the solid calligrapher." Weng Fanggang, a famous Qing calligrapher, writer and epigrapher, said: "There are only a few crosses left, and there are thousands of years of zigzag learning." The divine qi of the six dynasties was flooded with all the moves. Bao Shichen, a theorist of Qing calligraphy, said in the "Two Series of Yizhou": "The ruins of the Southern Dynasty are only "Crane Ming" and "Shi Que", Xiao Shanjunyi, and the same destination. ”

The Qing Dynasty literary scholar Liu Xizai said in the "Outline of Art": "The "Fistula Crane Ming" has been eroded very much, but although there are few words, its demeanor has been degraded, the gas is magnificent, and the taste is inexhaustible. Kang Youwei, a famous political thinker and scholar in modern times, praised: "Dating back to the Tang Dynasty, the heirs of the calligraphy are nothing less than sweat and cattle." But the magic of the big characters is nothing more than the crane inscription. Because of its boldness and majesty, such as the dragon running river and the sea, the tiger earthquake mountain. ”

From the comments of these scholars and scholars, and then carefully reading the original stone, it is not difficult for you to find that this calligraphy work has indeed achieved the realm of free writing as Sun Guoting said: "Gain its affection, shape its mournfulness". What we have to learn from it is not the specific brush technique of brush stroke by stroke, but to truly understand the writing concept of the ancients, and finally use the pen in our hands to wield the inner world of life.

III. Conclusion.

All in all, the "Crane Ming" has been revered by all generations of calligraphers as the ancestor of large characters, and the way to use the pen in it requires a calm mind to understand well, and continuous practice to achieve the realm of free writing. Because calligraphy and writing are two different things, true calligraphy must be integrated into the personality and strong emotions of the calligrapher.
