论书法墨法在明清时期兴盛之成因

Trial Discussion on the Causes of Ink Technique Boom in Calligraphy during Ming and Qing Dynast

墨法,作为书法艺术中一个重要的艺术手法和审美内容,其自觉意识远远落后于笔法。从魏晋时发端至明清时期,方呈现出兴盛的态势,此时对墨法的重视及其艺术表现力的丰富,都远远超过了前代。文章尝试从书法艺术本体发展的自我选择;文人画的兴起和以画入书的结果;书写工具材料变迁的影响三个方面来探究这一现象。

Ink technique is both one important kind of art technique and one important part of aesthetic content in calligraphy art, but it far lags behind brush technique. Though beginning from Wei and Jin dynasty, it was booming in Ming and Qing dynasty. In Ming and Qing dynasty, people paid more attention to ink technique than their predecessors, and the expressiveness of ink technique was much more abundant than before. There are three causes for this phenomenon： First, the choice made by calligraphy itself according to its development; second, the rise of literati painting and the result of “bring painting into calligraphy”（yi hua ru shu）; third, the changes of calligraphy materials.
