Five-Style Calligraphy Dictionary Japan Calligraphy Association This is a substantial, cloth-bound Five-Style Calligraphy Dictionary published by the Japan Calligraphy Association. ◆As shown in the uploaded photos◆ Volume 1: Kaisho (Regular Script) Volume 2: Gyosho (Running Script) Volume 3: Sosho (Cursive Script) / Kana Volume 4: Tensho (Seal Script) / Reisho (Clerical Script) Volume 5: Bokuba Hihyo (Essential Ink Usage) Volume 6: Commentary ◆With substantial lecture content, it is also a comprehensive Five-Style Calligraphy Dictionary◆ There are various Five-Style Calligraphy Dictionaries for calligraphers that collect the five styles of Kaisho, Gyosho, Sosho, Tensho, and Reisho, but with too many characters recorded in most of them, even advanced users get lost on which character to use when it comes to practical application. Furthermore, the recorded characters vary in size, some are too small to see clearly, and the lack of clear distinction between script styles due to simple listing. Also, using traditional calligraphy models (hojo) could be a waste of time. ◆This book is groundbreaking as it was published to solve the above problems◆ As shown in the uploaded photos. I personally think they are in relatively good condition, but there are pages with discoloration and dirt due to age. I believe they are fine for use as models. Correctional guidance is not provided. Those concerned about dirt should refrain from bidding.
