The research object of this paper is the calligraphy and collection of the Liang family in Zhengding in Ming and Qing Dynasties.In the early years of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty,the Liang family moved from yu zhou,Shanxi Province to Zhengding,Hebei Province,influenced by the current situation and policies.From the seventh generation of Menglong Liang,it flourished and became a famous family in the local area,and it reached its peak in Liang Qingbiao,a university student in the tenth Baohe Hall.Since Menglong Liang,many members of the Liang family have become officials through the imperial examinations.They have not only devoted themselves to national defense,national unity and other national governance,but also made great contributions to literary works,calligraphy collection and other aspects,becoming a cultural family in the northern region.The second chapter of this paper focuses on the calligraphy creation in the cultural field,and classifies the calligraphy works of Liang family into three categories according to the form and content,such as "Ming Gong Song De","Daily Writing" and "Inscription and Postscript".Based on the relevant information in the discovered calligraphy works,the appreciation and friendship activities of the Liang family with a series of colleagues and close friends related to calligraphy,such as Zhao Nanxing,Song Luo and other celebrities,are integrated and divided into two parts according to the content and object of the friendship: "the love between teachers and friends" and "the friendship between calligraphy and calligraphy";According to the calligraphy features of Liang family members in the past dynasties,combined with the background of the Ming and Qing Dynasties,the historical contest between Wumen and Yunjian Calligraphy School,and personal calligraphy preferences,this paper comprehensively analyzes and outlines the development and artistic features of Liang family calligraphy under the ups and downs of the times.Liang Qingbiao is the second important historical figure in the family after Menglong Liang.The third chapter of this paper focuses on Liang Qingbiao’s calligraphy collection,which is known as "knowledgeable and appreciative",from combing the history of Liang’s family collection,from the seventh Menglong Liang to Liang Bin,Liang Qingbiao’s grandson,to exploring various sources of Liang Qingbiao’s calligraphy collection.At the same time,the identification of banana forests,the careful reloading of paintings and calligraphy,and the special attention to the seal,have formed a unique scale identification system."Tanglin Examination","Jiaolin Bookstore" and other collection seals and inscriptions not only represent the collection order of calligraphy treasures,but also symbolize the important significance of this authenticity and high artistic value.Qiu Bi Tang Fa Tie,which was carefully collected by Liang Qingbiao from a large number of collections,has been lost,but the rubbings handed down from generation to generation are enough to show the true content of the Fa Tie,providing important historical value for future generations to scrutinize copying and calligraphy research.Finally,by systematically sorting out the calligraphy styles presented by Liang family in Zhengding,this paper analyzes the practicality and culture behind his calligraphy features,and sums up the direct relationship between Liang’s calligraphy and the imperial examination system with the dynasties,so as to enlighten future generations on how to better inherit and carry forward a series of cultural works such as Liang’s family calligraphy collection,and explore the practical significance of cultural names for contemporary society. |
