Experiencing writing at our recent Chinese calligraphy workshop
Our summer Visiting Fellow Roland Buckingham Hsiao very kindly led a workshop on Chinese calligraphy a few weeks ago, which we greatly enjoyed. It was not only an opportunity to learn but to experience, which I am finding ever more important in my own research as I know are several colleagues in our network. I wanted to use this brief post to share some pictures and thoughts (with sincere apologies that the VIEWS blog has been so quiet recently, but only because we have been so busy working and attending conferences!).

I wanted to use this brief post to share some pictures and thoughts (with sincere apologies that the VIEWS blog has been so quiet recently, but only because we have been so busy working and attending conferences!). Roland both teaches and researches calligraphy, placing an important emphasis on writing as practice – which means that research is not only theoretical but also practical, observational and experiential.
