鄉里與兩京之間:唐前期江南士人家族

Between Homeland and Capital:Scholar-official Families in Jiangnan Area during the Early Tang Dynasty

一、"失落"的江南百年史在江南區域發展歷程中,唐前期的百年歷史顯得頗爲黯淡。隨着江左政權的終結,原本作爲王畿腹地的江南地區經歷了由中心而邊緣的蜕變,政治地位急遽墜落;至於後世經濟重心南移的進程,此時則遠未告成,江南在全國經濟版圖中也不佔顯著優勢[1]。

In the first half of Tang唐Dynasty,most of the high-ranked aristocratic families migrated from their homeland in Jiangnan江南to the capital region.But in the meanwhile,due to failures in their official careers or topophilia reasons,lower-ranked aristocratic families and local-based families dated from the Six-dynasties usually chose to stay in their homelands,or buried in their ancestral graves after official careers.Some local families such as Liyang-Shi溧陽史氏and Yixing-Jiang義興蔣氏,maintained their kinships with local society,which also sustained their basis of success in political and cultural fields.The newly-risen families appeared in the period of Emperor Gaozong唐高宗and Empress Wu武后partly came from them.In summary,aristocratic families during the early Tang in Jiangnan area were different from those capital-based aristocratic families,and characterized by the strong kinship with local society.
