Semester 2
​Chinese Calligraphy: Art and History

Discovery of Enchanting China

In this course, students will utilise explicitly designed tourism routes to further their understanding of Chinese Language & Culture in areas including Architecture, Food, Festivals, History, People, Religion, Ethnicity & Dialect. Students will gain fundamental knowledge about major cities and rural development in China, and how this influences the global economy. Topics explored will include Silk Road, Roof of the World, Three Gorges dam, Grand Canal, Shanghai International Expo, Forbidden City and A Bite of China.
Contemporary Chinese culture, and Chinese language development are combined in this new subject- perfectly suited to students wishing to gain a broad grasp of Chinese Culture whilst continuing their language studies.

Chinese Calligraphy: Art & History

In China, from a very early period, calligraphy has been viewed as the supreme visual art form, was more valued than painting and sculpture, and ranked alongside poetry as a means of self-expression, culture and class.
The art of Calligraphy is a nationwide tourist attraction for Chinese domestic tourists more so than for foreign nationals, however calligraphy is still an important tourist attraction for foreign visitors to continue the appreciation of the art form and experience the real China and Chinese culture.
This subject will be a practical introduction to the art of the Chinese writing brush with students being introduced to the care and use of writing brushes, inkstones, ink blocks and the paper- the four treasures of the study. Students will learn how to write characters with a brush, beginning with simple exercises on brushstrokes and graduating to “standard script” and other styles.

​This subject is suited to students learning Chinese at all levels, especially those with an interest in Chinese art and culture.
