Abstract English	Calligraphy has existed in many shapes in China, ever since the first Chinese characters were written. Calligraphy has been an important tool within politics as well as being an important art form. Contemporary Calligraphy has lost the prestige it once had, but is still used within politics though not to the same extent. Calligraphy as an art form has developed immensely during the latter part of the 20th century and is today highly appreciated and multi facetted. Calligraphy within the digital realm is a topic widely studied, where digital aid can make the study of calligraphy easier. According to a survey answered by Chinese in China, the participants have changed their views on Calligraphy since their youth. Although computers have taken over, calligraphy is still revered as a means to soothe ones mind. One generation back, calligraphy was one of the more important skills to master. In modern China, calligraphy has given way for Computer and English skills.
Abstract Swedish	Kalligrafi har funnits i Kina i många olika former alltsedan de första kinesiska tecknen präntades ner. Kalligrafi har varit ett viktigt medel inom politiken samtidigt som det har varit en viktig konstform i Kina. I dagens Kina har kalligrafi tappat sin forna glans, men används fortfarande inom politiken, om än i mindre utsträckning. Konstmässigt sett har kalligrafi utvecklats oerhört under 1900-talets senare hälft och är idag, liksom tidigare, en högt aktad och mångfacetterad konstform. Kalligrafi i den digitala världen är ett ämne inom vilket det forskats mycket om, där exempelvis digitala hjälpmedel kan underlätta vid inlärning av kalligrafi. Enligt en enkät besvarad av kineser i Kina, har de tillfrågade förändrat sin syn mycket sedan de var unga. Trots att datorer tagit över mycket, anses kalligrafi fortfarande vara ett bra sätt för att få ett stillat sinne. En generation bak i Kina var kalligrafi ett viktigt inslag i det dagliga livet och kan idag jämföras med dagens krav på engelska och datorkunskaper.
