水浒故事依附于北宋大盗宋江三十六人起事之史实,经过民间说唱、戏剧演出、文人史料记载等传播渠道,最后被文人整理、完善,编撰而成《水浒传》流传后世。在这个过程中,文人的忧患意识、自省意识渗透其中,水浒故事逐渐演变为具有传奇色彩和道教底蕴的《水浒传》,宋江等人的"大盗"形象被消解,好汉们的结局也分为向儒、向道两个选择。《水浒传》不再是民间津津乐道的草莽英雄故事,它已经被文人经典化,成为他们质疑、思考儒家价值观念的文学作品。

Water Margin stories were based on the historical event of 36 thieves led by Song Jiang in the Northern Song Dynasty. Through the channels of folk rap,drama performance and historical records of literati,they were finally sorted out,perfected and compiled into The Water Margin,which was handed down to later generations. In this process,the literati's sense of distress and introspection permeated into it,and the stories gradually evolved into the legendary and Taoist The Water Margin. The image of robbers of Song Jiang and others was dispelled. The end of the heroes was divided into two choices: Confucianism and Taoism. The Water Margin is no longer a folk heroic story,and it has been canonized by literati and become a literary work that they question and think about Confucian values.
