The characters used in Chinese writing are not letters but stylized ideographs, each with its own history. The development of Chinese writing is linked to the history of China s emperors, who commissioned new styles of writing with which to record their victories. In Between Heaven and Earth, master calligrapher Shi Bo gives a fascinating overview of the evolution of seven seminal Chinese writing styles starting in the seventeenth century BCE. He also introduces the reader to the calligrapher s art, including its materials and techniques. This gift-quality, two-color book is abundantly illustrated with archival material and the author s original calligraphy and will appeal to readers interested in Chinese language, history, and calligraphy.
