A Narrative on Calligraphy (Shu Pu, µ¢╕Φ¡£)  was written in 687AD by the renowned Tang dynasty calligrapher Sun Guoting (σ¡½ΘüÄσ║¡) of the seventh century and is regarded to be one of the most important narratives in examining the traditional art of Chinese calligraphy.  Yet, there is currently no satisfactory English translation of it.  This book provides readers an accurate, annotated, line-by-line, consistent and comprehensive English translation of A Narrative on Calligraphy.  Furthermore, various major and fundamental mistakes found in the two previous English translations by Chang & Frankel and De Laurentis are detailed and discussed.  This book is the revised and enhanced version of the previous book and delivers an even more precise translation with 20 titled thematic paragraphs that is based on Dr. Kwok Kin POON’s The Vernacular Chinese Translation of Sun Guoting’s A Narrative on Calligraphy  (σ¡½ΘüÄσ║¡µ¢╕Φ¡£τÖ╜Φ⌐▒σ░ìΦ¡».  Toronto: The SenSeis, Feb. 2019). Kwan Sheung Vincent Poon (µ╜ÿσÉ¢σ░Ü, 1979-) was born in Hong Kong, graduated from Ying Wa College in 1996, and later emigrated to Canada.  Studying at the University of Toronto, he completed his BSc as the top graduate in Biochemistry and subsequently obtained his MSc and BEd degrees.  He published numerous biochemistry research papers and currently teaches Mathematics and Science at the Toronto District School Board.  His passion for Chinese calligraphy began at the age of six when he was under the tutelage of his father Kwok Kin POON (µ╜ÿσ£ïΘì╡, PhD).  His books include A Narrative on Calligraphy by Sun Guoting (Φï▒Φ¡»µ¢╕Φ¡£) as well as English Translation of Classical Chinese Calligraphy Masterpieces (Φï▒Φ¡»µ│òµ¢╕).Kwok Kin Poon (µ╜ÿσ£ïΘì╡, 1949- ) was born in Guangzhou, raised in Hong Kong, and now resides in Toronto.
