北齐《高孝瑜墓志》考释

An Interpretation of The Epitaph of Gao Xiaoyu in the Northern Qi Dynasty

高孝瑜为北齐皇族,河南王。史书均有记述,但比较简略。《高孝瑜墓志》的面世,为我们全面了解高孝瑜其人其事提供了便利。整通墓志尽管溢美浮夸之词颇多,但志中大幅记载了志主高孝瑜的官爵以及受官时间,还是比较珍贵的且真实可信的,可补史证史有关记载之虞,为我们进一步研究和了解北朝晚期的社会政治生态,尤其是皇族、贵族和世家大族之间错综复杂的政治关系提供了丰富的实物资料,是一方十分珍贵的石质文物。

Gao Xiaoyu was a member of the Northern Qi royal family and the King of Henan.There were some records about him in historical books,but they were relatively simple.The finding of The Epitaph of Gao Xiaoyu enabled a comprehensive understanding of him.Although there were too many praises and exaggerations in the tomb epitaph,it mostly recorded the official title and appointment time of the owner,which is quite precious and reliable.It can supplement the historical evidence and provide us with rich materials for further research and understanding of the social and political situation in the late Northern dynasty,especially the complex political relationships between the imperial family,nobility and aristocratic families.It is a very precious stone cultural relic.
