中文摘要:

      一般定义，萧衍、沈约、谢朓、王融、萧琛、范云、任昉、陆倕组成的“竟陵八友”，是南齐永明年间由竟陵王萧子良召集形成的文人团体。但其实，“竟陵八友”的雏形，早在王俭身居宰府，掌选职，又兼领国子祭酒时就已经初具规模。后来被王俭拉拢团结的萧衍、谢朓、任昉、萧琛等人纷纷转入竟陵王府，倒向竟陵王萧子良一边，最终形成“竟陵八友”。这其实是皇权和王俭士族相权的矛盾变得不可调和，齐武帝忌惮王俭势力扩大，扶植二儿子竟陵王萧子良以打压王俭的一台好戏。探究“竟陵八友”的形成，可揭示永明年间皇权一面利用士族、一面又打压士族并取得胜利的历史过程。

英文摘要:

      The “Eight Friends of Jingling”, which is generally defined as Xiao Yan, Shen Yao, Xie Xi, Wang Rong, Xiao Chen, Fan Yun, Ren Fang, and Lu Yun, was a group of literati formed by Xiao Ziliang, the King of Jingling, during the Yongming period of Southern Qi. But in fact, the prototype of “Eight Friends of Jingling” had already taken shape as early as when Wang Jian was in the Chancellery, in charge of the selection office, and headed the priest of the State Scholarship. Later, Xiao Yan, Xie Xie, Ren Fang and Xiao Chen, who had been brought together by Wang Jian, turned to the King of Jingling’s house and fell on the side of King of Jingling Xiao Ziliang, eventually forming the “Eight Friends of Jingling”. This is actually a good show that the contradiction between the imperial power and Wang Jian’s scholarly power became irreconcilable, and Emperor Wu of Qi was afraid of the expansion of Wang Jian’s power and supported his second son, King Xiao Ziliang of Jingling, to suppress Wang Jian. The formation of the “Eight Friends of Jingling” reveals the historical process in which the imperial power made use of the scholarly clan while suppressing them and achieving victory.
