南朝墓志文体的文学化进程考察

摘要

By observing the course of stylistic evolution based on all the epitaphs known in the Southern Dynasties systematically,we can easily see that some unique literary styles and aesthetic characteristics had gradually come in-to being in the development of their epitaphs,which increasingly displayed an inclination for literary creation at the same time.All in all,the factors made the styles of the Southern dynasties’epitaphs move from practical writings to literature,which had much to do with the change of the burial system,the stylistic functions which epitaphs styles carry,the active participation of noble men and men of letters,as well as the characteristics of the times,etc.%综合传世文献引录与建国以来新出土的南朝墓志资料，系统考察南朝墓志文体的演进过程，可以看出，南朝墓志在其发展定型过程中，逐步形成自身特有的文学品格和审美特征，墓志作品日趋呈现出文学化的创作倾向。如果把这种现象置放于南朝文学与文化的双重背景下去思考，则可以发现，南朝墓志文体之所以呈现出文学化倾向，与南朝葬制的变革、墓志文体承载功能的变化、勋贵与文人的积极参与，以及时代文风的变化等有着重要关系。
