唐中晚期北方士人主动移居江南现象探析——以唐代墓志材料为中心

A Discussion on the Immigration of the Scholar-bureaucrats in the North to the Jiangnan Area in the Late Period of Tang Dynasty:Based on the Epitaph Materials

唐中晚期北方士人在避乱之外,亦存在数种主动移居江南的情况。唐代选官制度和赋税制度的变化是促成不同地域间士人流动的根本原因。同时,江南本地日常生活水平的相对低廉,林立的、藏书丰富的寺院和浓厚的人文氛围及其自然山水风景,亦对家累甚重,或家境较为窘迫的北方士人形成一定的吸引力,也比较容易成为致仕官员和落第举子的游心骋物之所。这在一定程度上促进了江南地区在经济和文化上的发展,也增进了北人对南方的认识和了解。

In Mid-late of Tang Dynasty, the Scholar-bureaucrat in the north immigrated to the Jiangnan area, some for avoiding the war, some initiatively. The change of the goverment-choosing office system and the tax system could be re- garded as the fundamental reasons. And the scholars were also attracted by the low level of consumption, temples with abundant books, humanistic atmosphere and the beautiful scenery. The poor scholars, retired officers and candidates failing in the imperial examination would feel leisure and carefree here. It also stimulated the economic and cultural de- velopment in Jiangnan area and promoted the understanding of the people lived in the north area to the south.
