学界以往将一些从古籍中辑录的文本当作浙江上古时期的原始歌谣和神话传说，并将其视为浙江文学的两大源头。然而，前者中有的是从楚地流传过来的时代特征不明的歌谣，有的是汉人仿楚辞体为书中人物代拟的诗赋，并不是浙江上古时期的原始歌谣；后者则大多是从中原发端的大禹神话在越地的延伸和衍生。作为中国地域文学中比较晚起的一个分支，吴越文学事实上并不是在先越文化的基础上产生的，而是在吴越文化接受楚文化和中原文化影响进而逐渐汉化的过程中形成的。而其地域特色的彰显，则有赖于作者的在地书写实践和对地域文化主体性的发掘。就文本形态而言，吴越文学发轫于汉初吴人辞赋，是南北文学交汇融合的产物。而东汉时期出自越地的一批文人著述，尤其是《吴越春秋》，则更加充分地吸收融合了南北两大文学传统，形成了自己独特的文学语言。这些作品通过书写吴越历史传奇，展现了吴越文化的主体性，是吴越文学初步成形的一个标志。

Previous scholarship has often identified texts compiled from ancient classics as primitive ballads and mythological legends from Zhejiang's antiquity,considering them dual sources of Zhejiang literature. However,these so-called primitive ballads include materials of ambiguous provenance transmitted from the Chu region,along with poetic compositions imitating the Chu Ci style that were likely Han Dynasty literati's creative reconstructions for historical figures-neither can be conclusively verified as authentic primitive ballads from ancient Zhejiang. Similarly,the mythological narratives predominantly represent extensions and adaptations of the Great Yu myth originating from the Central Plains within the Yue cultural sphere. As a relatively late-developing branch of Chinese regional literature,Wu-Yue literature did not emerge from autochthonous pre-Yue culture,but rather took shape through the gradual sinicization process wherein Wu-Yue culture assimilated influences from both Chu culture and Central Plains traditions. The articulation of its regional distinctiveness hinges upon authors' localized narratives and their excavation of regional cultural subjectivity. In terms of textual formation,Wu-Yue literature originated in the Fu poetry of Wu scholars during the early Han dynasty,emerging as a product of the convergence and fusion between northern and southern literary traditions. During the Eastern Han period,literary works produced by Yue scholars,particularly The Annals of Wu and Yue(Wu Yue Chunqiu),achieved deeper integration of northern and southern literary conventions. This text developed a distinctive literary language through its narration of Wu-Yue historical legends,thereby asserting the cultural subjectivity of Wu-Yue. It stands as a seminal marker of Wu-Yue literature's preliminary maturation.
