后进·强盛·衰败——六朝陈郡谢氏家族的历史轨迹

On the History of the Xie's Clan in the Six Dynasties Period

陈郡谢氏是后进世族,很长一段时期内都被旧族所轻。到了东晋中期,随着谢氏子弟先后列为方镇,谢氏的政治势力开始强大,以至逐渐掌控了东晋王朝的政治、军事大权,从而在东晋中后期发展成为一流世族。南朝以后,由于门阀政治衰微,陈郡谢氏逐渐失去了手中的实权,又因历经数次变故,族人多有丧亡,以致人脉不继,陈郡谢氏便在南朝后期彻底败落。

The Xie＇s Clan （谢氏）is a less aristocratic family, which had been neglected by older clans for a long time. By mid - Eastern Jin, with the children of the Xie＇ s family mastering military power, the political forces of the family began to be strong, finally, the Xie members grasped the military and political powers of Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Xie Clan became top -ranking clan in the middle and later Eastern Jin Dynasty. After Southern Dynasties, The Xie＇ s Clan gradually lost their power owing to the weakening of family polities, and thoroughly declined in the latter Southern Dynasties.
