中国农业大学博士生导师朱毅

中国农业大学博士生导师朱毅与文化学者浦寅都对《书法没有秘密》给予了高度评价。在轻松惬意的对谈中，寇老师用如其文风一般接地气的回答畅谈了关于习字入门选体、启蒙年龄、执笔之姿等多个大众关心的问题。

文化学者浦寅（左）与寇克让

选楷书入门是从古，也是从众；8岁不喜欢书法不代表18岁不喜欢，重要的不是严律而是创造接触书法的环境；而执笔就像用筷，从古至今，执笔姿势一直在随着桌椅的高矮而变，重要的是做到以舒适为宜。在寇克让平易近人的回答里，听众不由觉得书法很近，仿佛真的没有秘密。

寇克让现场展示

而在互动环节中，借由朱毅教授带来的纸与笔，寇克让在现场以水代墨，向读者们展示了书法的灵活性与艺术性，浅谈了对现今丑书“宁丑勿媚”的观点。

在活动的尾声，寇老师说道，书法没有秘密，但书法有原则。这既是寇老师的学术态度，也是寇老师的处事原则。新版《书法没有秘密》毫无疑问是焕然一新的，但是这新并非为新而新，而是研习书法与研读文献两条道路的共同指向，是贯彻“书法问题书法解决”数年之久真切体会。
