我国人谈起书法教育来,总是上诉到《周礼》「保氏养国子以道,乃教之六艺……五日六书」。六书即文字学,包括书法在内。但国子是指贵族子弟,当时老百姓是没有受教育机会的。《孟子》:「夏曰校,殷曰序,周曰庠,学则三代共之。」下文又有「小民亲于下」的话,可知孟子所了解的教育对象已经逐步面向全民了。只是教育的科目无从考见。汉代还留下来有关书法教育一些资料。据许慎 Chinese people talked about calligraphy education, always appealed to the “Zhou Li,” “Paul’s son to keep the country Road, is to teach the six arts ... ... five days six books.” Six books that textology, including calligraphy included. But the country is the aristocratic children, when people are not educated. “Mencius”: “Xia said school, Yin said the order, Zhou Yue 庠, learn the three generations of the total.” There is another “little pro-under” next words, we can see Mencius understand the object of education has gradually become universal. Only subjects of education can not find it. Han Dynasty also left some information on calligraphy education. According to Xu Shen
