Abstract

During his lifetime, Xun Yunchang was a professor at the School of Liberal Arts of Southwest University. He was a master tutor for two majors in classical literature and calligraphy. He has made great achievements in poetry and calligraphy. He has three identities as calligrapher, poet, and scholar, showing his profound learning and superb level. Mr. Xun's calligraphy integrates Han and Wei dynasties, and goes in and out of Jin and Tang dynasties, which is thick and steady. Through case analysis and other research methods, this article believes that Mr. Xun has made a great contribution to the cause of calligraphy in China and should have a lofty status in the history of modern calligraphy.
