                                                          Description
                                                          Deng Shi-Ru (1743-1805) is known as a poet
                                                          whose unique script style greatly influenced
                                                          the development of calligraphy. However,
                                                          people usually look at his disadvantaged
                                                          background and low social status rather
                                                          than his work. Because Deng did not receive
                                                          a  formal education, some  people criticize
                                                          his works as displaying less literary sense. I
                                                          personally disagree with this point of view.
                                                          Studying is not the most important factor for
                                                          positively influencing calligraphy. The most
                                                          crucial thing I read in Deng’s works is his
                                                          unique style, which was inspired by nature
                                                          and became a very important example to
                                                          subsequent generations. To me, Deng is truly a
                                                          master of calligraphy.
