The so-called "Spring and Autumn Calligraphy", also known as "Spring and Autumn Calligraphy" or "Outlining the Great Righteousness", is a historical narrative method and skill in ancient China, and an article writing method created by Confucius, that is, expressing the author's ideological tendency in the narrative of the article, rather than expressing it through rhetoric.

Spring and Autumn Annals is a historical book of Lu, which is said to have been edited by Confucius. Scholars believe that every word it uses must contain praise and criticism. In Historical Records, Zuo Qiuming made a subtle exploration of the occult, and made a precise summary of this brushwork for the first time: "The name of Spring and Autumn Annals is implicit and obvious, with gloomy aspirations, graceful and logical, and not dirty, punishing evil and persuading good. Who can fix it without a sage? (The description of Spring and Autumn Annals uses fine words with obvious meanings, and records historical facts with profound meanings. It is witty and logical, exhaustive and undistorted, and warns evil and promotes good. If you are not a saint, who can write? )"

Because Confucius wrote the Spring and Autumn Annals, he implied praise and criticism when describing history. Although he didn't directly explain his views on people and things, he euphemistically and implicitly expressed the author's subjective views through detailed description, rhetorical devices (such as word selection) and material selection.

In order to explain Confucius' thoughts, later writers wrote special works to explain the inner meaning of Spring and Autumn Annals, especially some details about ceremonies. For example, "Wu Gong was angry and slaughtered it, saying," Hu, the country of brothers. What's the point of chopping off your son? "Now that you have killed him (Guan), there is no need to use the humble title of' son' to address people.
