**News Title:** “During Grain Rain Season, Sinologists Unveil the Aesthetic Secrets within the Square Characters of Chinese Calligraphy”
**Keywords:** Grain Rain Season, The Beauty of Chinese Characters, Sinologists’ Insights

**BEIJING, April 20 (Xinhua)** — With the arrival of Grain Rain, one of the 24 solar terms signifying spring’s vitality, the allure of Chinese characters also blossoms like the season. Recently, a distinctive cultural event dedicated to Chinese calligraphy took place in Beijing, drawing sinologists from across the globe to celebrate and interpret the aesthetics of these “square” characters.
Themed “Exploring Chinese Characters in the Season of Grain Rain,” the event aimed to demonstrate the profound historical roots of Chinese culture by intertwining the solar term with the written word. Sinologists offered their perspectives, contending that Chinese characters are not only symbols for language but also vehicles of the spirit of Chinese civilization. Each “square character” encapsulates abundant philosophical insights and wisdom, having evolved over time to form a distinctive Eastern aesthetic.
Renowned American sinologist John Smith pointed out that the structure of Chinese characters resembles miniature paintings, with every stroke and component holding profound symbolism. Using the character “雨” (rain) as an example, he highlighted how it vividly portrays water descending from the sky, reflecting古人’ reverence and understanding of nature.
Li Ming, a researcher at the Language Institute of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, emphasized that the evolution of Chinese characters is a dynamic chronicle of Chinese history. By examining the character “谷” (grain) from oracle bone script to seal script, and then to regular script, he demonstrated the progression of agricultural civilization and the tight bond between characters and societal change.
During the event, sinologists engaged in calligraphy exhibitions and poetry recitations to deeply appreciate the charm of the characters. They collectively expressed that Chinese characters are not only treasures of Chinese culture but also a global cultural heritage deserving worldwide appreciation and study.
This “Exploring Chinese Characters in the Season of Grain Rain” event not only facilitated exchange among sinologists but also showcased the brilliance of this oriental art on the international stage, allowing more people to perceive the beauty within the “squares” and the soul of Chinese culture they embody.
