Abstract

From the perspective of literature, calligraphy is not only a visual art but also a carrier of emotions and thoughts. From the perspective of calligraphy, literature is not only words and documents but also the inheritance of culture and the expression of art. With its unique artistic language, calligraphy transforms the thoughts and emotions of the author into a figurative art form, making people feel the deep feelings and ideological connotations contained in the words when they appreciate the calligraphy. At the same time, the images of calligraphy in literary works also show diversified characteristics, both visually beautiful presentation, but also emotional resonance and communication. Based on the perspective of literary writing and calligraphy creation, this paper makes an in-depth analysis of the blending relationship and application path between literary writing and calligraphy creation and proposes to write your book, write your thoughts and emotions, use your literary writing as the material for calligraphy creation, and interpret and express the inner situation with calligraphy creation.
