What is Xiaozhuan?
Xiaozhuan, also known as Qinzhuan, is a font modified from Dazhuan. It originated from the Qin State in the late Warring States Period and was popular in the Qin Dynasty and the early Western Han Dynasty.
"Shuowen Jiezi·Xu" said: "As for Confucius's Six Classics, Zuo Qiu Ming's Spring and Autumn Annals, all of which were written in ancient texts and can be understood. After that, the princes were in power and were not unified by the king. ... The words have different sounds and the writing has different shapes. In the early days of the Qin Dynasty, the Prime Minister Li Si wrote the "Cang Jie Pian", and the Taishi Order ordered Zhao Gao to write it. Hu Wujing wrote the "Bo Xue Pian", all of which were based on the large seal script of Shi Zhou, or the so-called small seal script. "According to this theory, it seems that the small seal script was modified directly from the large seal script by Li Si and a few others. Judging from the unearthed cultural relics of the Qin Dynasty, the small seal script gradually evolved from the large seal script, and there is no clear era boundary between the two. Some characters in the large seal script are also complex, inconvenient to write, and do not meet the requirements of social development for writing. Therefore, simplification began in the Spring and Autumn Period, and accelerated significantly during the Warring States Period. Li Si and others just collected and organized the small seal script fonts that were already popular in society. Just use it as a standard font and promote it to the whole society.
The Xiaozhuan characters of the Qin Dynasty have been handed down such as Taishan Carved Stone, Langxie Carved Stone, Yishan Carved Stone, Kuaiji Carved Stone, etc., as well as countless Qin Liang, Qin Quan, and Zhao editions. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Xu Shen wrote "Shuowen Jiezi", which collected 9353 Xiaozhuan characters. Although Xiaozhuan was not produced very early, its number is very large. It has a special status in the history of the development of Chinese characters and is a bridge from ancient characters to modern characters.

What is seal script?
It is the collective name for large seal script and small seal script. Large seal script, nail bone inscriptions, bronze inscriptions, Zhou inscriptions, and Six Kingdoms inscriptions all preserve the obvious characteristics of ancient hieroglyphics. Small seal script, also known as "Qin seal script", is the common script of the Qin Dynasty. It is a simplified font of large seal script. It is characterized by an even and neat shape and a font that is easier to write than Zhenwen. In the history of the development of Chinese characters, it is the transition between the large seal script and the regular script.
Seal script
[Edit this paragraph]
One of the ancient calligraphy styles of Chinese characters. The recent scholar Guo Moruo's "The Development of Dialectics of Ancient Writing" believes: "The seal script is called the 掾, and the 掾 is the official. The official system of the Han Dynasty mostly followed the Qin system. The internal officials included the subordinates who were responsible for the administration, called 掾zu, and the external officials included the bureau officials. They are all subordinates with official duties. Therefore, the so-called seal scripts are actually official scripts."
Seal script, in the broad sense, includes all calligraphy styles before the official script and its extensions, such as oracle bone inscriptions, bronze inscriptions, stone drum inscriptions, ancient Chinese script of the Six Kingdoms, small seal script, Miao seal script, stacked seal script, etc.; in the narrow sense, it mainly refers to the 'big seal script' and 'Xiaozhuan'. The variant of seal script is extremely complicated.
The ancients believed that the seal script was created by Cangjie, but this is not credible. Taishi Zhou, King of Zhou Xuan, wrote "Shi Zhou Pian", which is called "Da Zhuan", and the "Da Zhuan" article is detailed. After that, the countries were divided and ruled, and the princes were in power, and the characters were in different shapes. Until the time when Qin Prime Minister Li Si unified them, they were called "Xiao Zhuan" and "Xiang Xiao Zhuan". The characters in the seal script are drawn in circles, and the structure is based on the meaning of the six books. Therefore, Sun Guoting of the Tang Dynasty said: "The seal script is graceful and clear"
Large Seal Script
[Edit this paragraph]
One of the ancient Chinese character styles. Its name first appeared in writings of the Han Dynasty, and is symmetrical with 'Xiao Zhuan'. In a broad sense, it refers to the writing and calligraphy styles before "Xiaozhuan", including oracle bone inscriptions, bell and tripod inscriptions, Zhouwen and Six Kingdoms scripts, etc.; in a narrow sense, it specifically refers to the writing defined by Zhou Xuan Wang Taishi Zhou, that is, "Zhouwen". The representative works of "big seal script" include "Shiguwen" and "Qin Gonggui" inscriptions.
Zhouwen (瀱书)
[Edit this paragraph]
The writing of the Zhou Dynasty is generally considered to be the 'big seal script'. It may be said that it is different from the big seal script, so it is called "籀篆", or even regarded as a "strange character". In a broad sense, "Zhenwen" includes large seal script, small seal script, ancient Chinese script, etc.; in a narrow sense, it only refers to the text of "Shi Zhou Pian", that is, the book of Zong Zhou. Li Si of the Qin Dynasty made the "small seal script" based on it, and then used Zhouwen as the "big seal script".
籀篆
[Edit this paragraph]
It is actually the same as '籀文', that is, 'big seal'. However, Zhang Huaiguan of the Tang Dynasty's "Shu Duan" volume is divided into "Chenwen" and "Dazhuan", and it is believed that "Chenwen was written by Zhou Taishi Zhou, and is slightly different from the ancient seal script". "Quan Yuyi" in the volume "Hanshan Broom Talk" written by Zhao Huanguang of the Ming Dynasty also held this view, believing that the first chapter in the seal script was "Chen Zhuan", "Curse Chu Wen", "Zhong Ding Shi", and "Xiao Tang Lu" , as well as the rhymes recorded in Yang's "Shu Tong" and the ancient seal scripts, which are consistent with those of Xu's "Zhen Shu". One is called "big seal script", which is what "Shigu Wen" is. 'Based on this, the 'Xizhuan' written by Zhao is mostly the same as the 'Bronze Inscription'. Duan Yucai of the Qing Dynasty once tried hard to identify the fallacy in his notes to "Shuowen Jiezi·Xu" and believed that "籀篆" is actually "大篆". Recently, scholars have compromised between the two theories and believe that there is a difference between 'Zhuan' and 'Dazhuan' (mainly referring to "Shiguwen") in terms of fonts. Therefore, for example, Zhao Huanguang and others ranked "Xizhuan" in addition to "Dazhuan", and their theory is also reasonable.
Historical books
[Edit this paragraph]
There are two theories: (1) It refers to the 'Zhenwen', which is the text of "Shi Zhoupian". (2) Refers to 'official script', and many scholars in the Qing Dynasty believe in this theory.
Stone Drum Inscriptions
Qin’s inscriptions on ten drum-shaped stones. In the early Tang Dynasty, it was discovered in the plains three miles south of Yong County, Qizhou. Each drum contains a four-character poem, ten in a group, describing the fishing and hunting conditions at that time, so it is also called "Hunting Jie". Now in the collection of the Palace Museum, one drum has lost its characters, and the remaining nine drums are also in ruins. The famous rubbings handed down from the Northern Song Dynasty include the "Zhongquan", "Xianfeng" and "Huijin" copies of Ming Anguo's "Shiguzhai", which have been imported into Japan.
