论简帛书法发展的内在原因及其载体的文化意义

On the internal causes of the silk penmanship's development and the cultural significance of its carrier

简帛书法是中国历史上客观存在的一种文化现象,我们应从文化学角度进行研究。简帛书法的发生、发展、湮没、中兴,既与简牍缣帛文化载体这一物质外壳有关,更与书法艺术自身内在发展规规律密切相关。简帛书法的文化载体本身即蕴含着极为深刻而特殊的文化意义,如对汉字书写编排的由上至下、由右至左的款式习惯的形成,汉字的简化,汉字横画多于竖画等特点的形成,汉字书法笔法的丰富等都起了难以估量的重要作用。
