The Xinhai Revolution， also known as the Revolution of 1911， was a revolution that overthrew Chinas last imperial dynasty （the Qing dynasty）， and established the Republic of China （ROC）. The history of the Republic of China began after the Qing dynasty in 1912 when the 4，000 years of imperial rule was ended. The ROC gave chances for the whole society to change and rebirth when the new and the old struggled against each other. Some were disappeared forever， while others irradiated new life， such as the calligraphy.

辛亥革命將中國(guó)社會(huì)帶入了一個(gè)稱之為“民國(guó)”的時(shí)代。那是一個(gè)混亂不堪的年代，也是一個(gè)滿懷激情的年代，甚至是一個(gè)令人仰望的年代。在那個(gè)充滿熱血與激情、等待變革與重生的時(shí)代，傳統(tǒng)文化作為一種不可忽視的潛在力量，在舊與新的蛻變中苦苦掙扎。這其中，有些永遠(yuǎn)消逝，有些終于涅槃，而有些，卻表現(xiàn)出與所謂“亂世”相符而又相悖的矛盾化繁榮，譬如書(shū)法。
