Calligraphy achievements

The age of Yang Ning's life was just the time when the Tang Dynasty went to the end, followed by the war of the Five Dynasties. This talented person is bound to turn into a strange one, and even seek to save himself from disaster with the illness of a madman. Naturally, the art of calligraphy that he used to comfort his soul will not be dignified. His running script, which shows his spirit and personality, can also be said to be the mark left on his spirit by the times of decline and chaos he encountered.

The great master Ouyang Xun and Yan Zhenqing indulged,

Many of Yang Ning's wall inscriptions can still be seen until the Northern Song Dynasty. Huang Tingjian once said, "when I went to the capital, I watched the books of young master Yang in the monk's wall, and all of them were marvelous." (Volume 8 of Ma zonghuo's shulinzaojian) it's a pity that the architecture can't be preserved forever, and all his wonderful calligraphic works disappear with the passage of time. There are only four kinds of ink on paper that have been preserved, including regular script "jiuhuatie", running script "the postscript of ten records of LuHong Caotang", running script "xiarettie" and cursive script "shenxiandaifa", and carved script "Xinbu function Ci". From these works, there are regular script, running script and cursive script, and there are many changes in style. This change, on the one hand, shows his artistic skill, on the other hand, it is the natural flow of his feint character. The contents of these posts are either about fitness and health, or about romance and snow, or about immortals and Taoists. None of them are serious. Why is that so? The world is in turmoil, and it is not worth mentioning and worrying about. Therefore, he has to seek pleasure in the world outside the secular world.

The calligraphic art of Yang Ning style built a bridge between the peaks of calligraphic art in Tang and Song dynasties. As far as the development of calligraphy is concerned, there was a Song Dynasty. As for those who studied Yang Ning's style after that, there were many people in the Song Dynasty, but few of them could get the essence of it.

Character evaluation

Xue Juzheng's the history of the Old Five Dynasties: good at writing and writing.

Tang poetry biography: congealing style handwriting is elegant, learning from Ouyang Xun and Yan Zhenqing, and being free.

Li Xitai: withered fir, fallen cypress, old frost, pine, smoke, musk, coal, cold rain. I was also born with a bookish habit. I went to the temple once and read it once.

Yin Zhu: Mr. Yang wrote a lot of ink. He wrote with the pen of Mr. Yang. He galloped freely and got his own ideas.

Su Song: most of the people in the Tang Dynasty were good at calligraphy. They used regular script to do their best. When it comes to the Five Dynasties, the typeface is declining. Only Yang Gongning's typeface can be used.

Wang qinruo: one paper of coagulated ink, the world painting is very ancient, the style of writing is flying, and it is a wonderful thing in the world. However, he did not like to write letters, which was rarely seen by later generations.

Mi Fu: 1. Yang Ning's style is like a cross wind and a slanting rain. It is full of paper and clouds. (Haiyue book review) 2. The book of congealing style is natural and brilliant, and the book of Zongyi style is Yan Lugong's post for seats. (history of books)

Su Shi: first, since Yan Liu's family did not exist, the style of writing declined, and the late Tang Dynasty was in turmoil, the characters were withered, and the literary talent was swept away. Only Yang Gongning style, writing hero, there are two Wang Yan Liu, this is really the hero of the book, not for the times. ② Congealing style books are quite similar to Yan Xing.

Huang Tingjian: 1. When Yu Guo came to Luoshi, he saw all the books of Shaoshi Yang in the monk's room, and all of them were wonderful. He should be the second best painter in Luozhong with Wu Sheng. ② When you see Yan Lu's book, you know that Ou Yuxi Xue Mi entered the room of the right army. When you see Yang Shaoshi's book, you know that Xu Shen has dust. ③ Since the Jin Dynasty, it's hard to get rid of them, but young master Yang, the Duke of Yan and Lu, is like dalinger. Nowadays, people of the Duke of Lu do as the Romans do, and most of them respect him. If he wants to know Yang's calligraphy well, he should be like a horse in nine directions and leave his black and yellow female. ④ Congealing style, such as scattered monks into the holy. ⑤ People try their best to learn from the Orchid Pavilion noodles, and want to change the bones without the golden elixir. Who knows Luoyang Yang Fengzi, write to wusilan.

"Shao Shi Wen Jian Lu": congealing style from Yan Liu to ER Wang is wonderful, and the regular script method is exquisite.

Huang Bosi: Luo people love Yang Shaoshi's calligraphy, but since the middle of Tang Dynasty, Han Jin calligraphy has not been handed down. As Ning Shi generation said, it's not far away. It seems that Kuaiji's father's and son's handwriting is not as good as it is. Luo people got Yang's authentic works and boasted that they were rare and precious. The so-called son's sincerity is equal to people's ears.

Xuanhe calligraphy Manual: congealing style is fond of writing characters, especially touching grass. Its handwriting is strong and strong. It is up and down with Yan Zhenqing's running calligraphy. It is a hero in calligraphy at that time.

Zhang Shinan: Congshi is a famous scholar. He did not meet the time, but at the time of Tang and Liang dynasties, he supported himself with righteousness. The size of the placket is so large that it can avoid the disaster of five seasons and end up in the longevity test.

Zhao Bingwen: what's the difference between young master Yang's persuading his father not to regard his country as his father's duty? Therefore, although the book inherits the five seasons of the late Tang Dynasty, it still has the pure atmosphere of Chengping.

Dong Qichang: Shaoshi's chive flower calligraphy is slightly in line style, and Xiao Sanyou's style is better than that of Shaoshi's other calligraphy. However, Shaoshi's style is better.

Liu Yong's quatrains on books: he loves Yang fengcao and Faqi very much, but he still follows in the late days of Xitai. Xiangmenhua group is willing to give up, who is more important in the Five Dynasties.

Wang Wenzhi's quatrains on books: a piece of chive flower is the most beautiful in Huating. Want to see daytime sleepers suddenly rise, Mai Guangpu case write autumn overcast.

Bao Shichen: 1. The scenery is as strong as a horse, and the cloth is tight. ② Luoyang grass potential is divided into potential, with the side as the male song. Dong Li and Su zizong were unique, and they had to go to Heyuan. ③ It's very difficult for a young teacher to put his grass on paper and make it as powerful as he can, but he's still reserved and cool.

Shuji: Su and Huang of the Five Dynasties pushed the scenery alone. Today, you Jieran, such as Da xiantie, is not only powerful and powerful, but also strict. It's hard to find. You don't need to imitate Yan and Liu, and Yan and Liu are ready. It is also said that Jing Du's calligraphy machine is based on his appearance, but he does not wear any clothes, so he has his own family. However, those who learn to look beautiful are especially good at writing and fighting, and those who don't walk on the outside are also good at it.

Li Ruiqing: Yang Jingdu was a hub of the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty. The chive flower calligraphy was used to collect the front of the pen into the paper, and the Lanting method was also used. Siweng used the scenery to spend his time in the plains, and changed his frustration, but he could not get out of the scope all his life.

Kang Youwei: the Shao division changed the face of the right army, but he was satisfied with the spirit of reason. He divided the grass into two parts, so he could be very successful.

Yang Ningshi was spirited, intelligent and full of literary talent. His articles were highly praised by people at that time. However, he was slightly poor in shape and short in stature, which did not affect his success in the entrance examination of Tang Zhaozong. Since then, he began his official career as a financial officer, i.e. inspector of Duzhi, and then promoted to secretary.

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Yang Ningshi's father, Yang sheguan, was the prime minister. But the situation of the rise of the princes made him very difficult. Finally, when the Tang Dynasty was replaced by Zhu Wen, he took a thankless job and sent the emperor's seal to Zhu Wen. It turned out that when he was Prime Minister, he cried to his son: "in this troubled time
