萧统与文章“原出于五经”

About Xiao Tong and His Opinions of the Argument of "Essays All Were Stemmed from Five Classics(Wu Jing)"

挚虞《文章流别论》提出有的文体“原出于五经”,刘勰《文心雕龙.宗经》提出文章“原出于五经”,萧统则提出“文”的“随时变改”,认为诸种文体不依托五经,是随时代独立产生的,萧统的论证及选文实践是梁代“文”的自觉与“文”的独立的具体表现。

As for the viewpoint of 'Essays all were stemmed form Five Classics(Wu Jing)',Zhi Wu had mentioned it in his work 'On Schools of Essay' and Liu Xie had also mentioned it in his masterpiece 'Carving a Dragon at the Core of Literature(Wenxindiaolong)',unlike the two,Xiao Tong had declaimed the opinions of 'Essays should be responded to the time' and should not be counted upon Five Classics(Wu Jing).The illustrations and the writing practices of Xiao Tong were the typical ones of the typical conscience and dependent concrete presentations of 'Essays' in 'Liang Dynasty'.
