The five main styles are seal script, clerical script, regular script, running script, and cursive script. Seal script is the oldest style, with round and even strokes. It was used in ancient inscriptions on bones and bronze vessels. Clerical script has flat and wide strokes. It was developed during the Han Dynasty and is known for its simplicity and elegance. Regular script is the most common style today. It is clear and orderly, making it easy for beginners to learn. Many textbooks use this style. Running script is a semi-cursive style. It is more flowing than regular script but still readable. Wang Xizhi’s “Preface to the Orchid Pavilion” is a masterpiece of this style. Cursive script is highly free and abstract. Strokes are connected and simplified, making it difficult to read but very expressive. It is often compared to modern art.
