The study of epigraphy in China has a long history, but the study of the ancients is far less convenient than that of the present. Many historical materials that we can see, such as Oracle Bone Inscriptions, are invisible to ancient scholars. This time, The Complete Works of China's Calligraphy in Chongxian Museum can carefully sort out the previous historical materials, and also includes the newly discovered wooden slips of Lou Dongpai in Changsha, Hunan Province, which undoubtedly increases the documentary value of The Complete Works of China's Calligraphy.
—— Mao Peiqi (famous historian, researcher of Peking University Ming and Qing Research Center, doctoral supervisor of National College of China Renmin University, and one of the speakers of Lecture Room).
The calligraphy collections published in the past are often compilations of a certain aspect, or inscriptions or calligraphy books. The Complete Works of China's Calligraphy in Chongxian Museum can systematically edit and sort out inscriptions, calligraphy books, calligraphy posts and calligraphy theory, which is an unprecedented and precious work.

Books: all 24, 145. Li ke grew up in a scholarly family. His great-grandfather Wu was a famous painter and educator in the late Qing Dynasty. He used to be the dean of Lianchi Academy in Baoding, Zhili, and collected paintings, books, rubbings, calligraphy posts and notes handed down from generation to generation. Love and edification from childhood have become a good foundation for Li Ke to engage in the collation of ancient books and calligraphy collection in the future. Because of 1997, Li Ke received a gift from a folk collector, so he made a great wish to edit the Complete Works of China Calligraphy published by Chongxian Museum. During the 16 years when he fulfilled his promise, Li Ke visited collectors, libraries and museums at home and abroad, and purchased and sorted out a large number of rare books of solitary extension that have been lost overseas for more than a hundred years, as well as rare books of inscriptions that have been treasured for decades. After personally visiting many famous collectors and calligraphers in China, he privately collected and sorted out a large number of rare works handed down from generation to generation, which were widely collected and accumulated over time. /kloc-in the past six years, in the process of editing the Complete Works, I have been fortunate enough to get the guidance and even donations from many scholars and collectors such as Wang Yong, Lin Xiu, Ren Deshan, Mao Peiqi, Yang Zaichun and Liu Heng. Finally, the Collection of China's Calligraphy, a treasure that collectors saw today, came out.
