Abstract: During the Five Dynasties Bashu literature had quite different genres and throve. The different literary genres mixed with each other and formed new ones. From the end of Tang Dynasty to the Five Dynasties,many literati moved to Shu to avoid the disturbing and lasting wars in the central China. On the way to Bashu there were lots of passes,plank roads,bending rivers and steep mountains,which inspired literati to do their creative works during their travelling and affected their migration. Educated by the culture of the central China,the literati who migrated to Shu were not willing to accept the strange,old and uncivilized culture in Bashu deliberately or unconsciously. The uncertain life of the literati who migrated to Shu and their sorrowful opinions on the culture in Shu deeply influenced aesthetic values and literary creation styles of the Bashu literary cycles in this period.
Key words: Period of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms; geographical transportation; Ba-shu literary altar; literary creation
