士族化视角下北魏元瓒墓志

On the Epitaph of Yuan Zan in the Northern Wei Dynasty from the Aristocratism Perspective

2004年春在河南省洛阳市孟津县出土的北魏元瓒墓志,是一件不可多得的魏碑精品,具有极高的艺术和史料研究价值。元瓒墓志的撰写秉承中古时期所流行的贵族主义特征,集中围绕墓主元瓒优越的家世背景、仕宦履历、婚姻关系、学识品行等方面展开,反映了代北内徙胡人社会门阀的理念和成就。墓主元瓒的生平履历是特定年代的真实缩影,通过对其进行全新的解读,更加让我们体会到当时北魏日新月异的发展态势,错综复杂的政治局势,日益激烈的南北军事对峙和不断变动的社会形态。

In the spring of 2004 in Mengjin, Luoyang, the epitaph of Yuan Zan of the Northern Wei Dynasty was unearthed, which is a rare boutique with high artistic and historical value. Yuan Zan epitaph has the feature of the medieval popular aristocracy, concentrates around Yuan Zan＇ s prominent family background, official experi- ence, marital relationship, ability and character and reflects the thinking and achievement of social class hierar- chy of the barbarians after moving to Luoyang. Yuan Zan＇ s life experience is a real miniature of the particular era. A new interpretation on the epitaph let us realize the development trend of the Northern Wei Dynasty, its political perplexing and the intense military confrontation between the north and south.
