Overview

Enchanting Calligraphy IV by Lillian Don (董楊麗蓉) continues her transcendent journey of merging classical Chinese artistry with modern humanistic expression. A master calligrapher with over six decades of practice, Lillian brings to life the rhythm, spirit, and poetic grace of brush and ink, bridging time, language, and culture.In this fourth volume, Lillian Don presents an inspiring collection of masterpieces drawn from Tang and Song poetry, as well as modern verse and timeless reflections. Each work embodies the musicality of Chinese literature-its cadence, emotion, and depth-transformed through her lyrical brushwork into a universal visual language. The bilingual edition features precise and luminous English translations by Crystal Tai (盧琪綺), M.A. from Stanford University, and Harry Chen (陳治平, Ph.D.), a philosopher and cross-cultural scholar. Their translations not only render the text with scholarly accuracy but also echo its aesthetic and philosophical resonance, making this collection a benchmark for the translation of Chinese poetry and calligraphy. Beyond an art book, Enchanting Calligraphy IV serves as a cultural archive and educational reference, offering readers, students, and researchers a rich resource for exploring the poetic essence of Chinese civilization. Lillian's brush captures both tranquility and passion-graceful yet bold, meditative yet full of life-reflecting the spiritual continuity between Li Bai's romantic freedom and Su Shi's intellectual grace. This volume celebrates more than beauty; it is a living dialogue between tradition and modernity, East and West, inviting readers to experience the timeless harmony of word, ink, and soul. 《Enchanting Calligraphy IV》（《墨染芳華 4》） 是書法家 董楊麗蓉（Lillian Don） 延續其藝術與文化探索的第四部經典。 歷經六十餘年臨池不輟，董老師以深厚的筆墨功力與當代人文眼光，將傳統書法的韻致與現代詩意完美結合，使每一筆都成為中西文化對話的橋樑。 本書收錄 唐詩、宋詞、近現代詩句與哲理名言，筆法或清逸灑脫、或沉靜深邃，展現書藝與詩心交融的風采。她以筆為詩，以墨為語，讓古典詩文在今日世界中重現生命光彩。 全書採中英對照形式，英譯由 斯坦福大學碩士盧琪綺（Crystal Tai） 與 哲學博士陳治平（Harry Chen, Ph.D.） 共同完成。兩位譯者以精準的語言、豐富的文化修養與哲理思考，使詩詞的意境與書法的精神在英語世界中得以生動再現。此舉不僅提升了作品的國際可讀性，更使本書成為中華詩詞英譯與書法藝術研究的重要典範與素材庫。 《Enchanting Calligraphy IV》不僅是一部書法藝術集，更是一部記錄文化心靈的詩意文獻。它跨越語言與時代，將中華文化的深邃智慧與藝術之美呈現於世，邀請讀者共同感受詩、書、心靈交織的永恆共鳴。
