- Abstract
“Water Margin” is the essence of wisdom in Chinese history. With 108 heroes in Liangshan as the main line, this book describes the social outlook and human sentiments of the Northern Song Dynasty, and portrays the loyalty and cunning among people. This book is mainly on the stories among men. At the same time, a series of bright female images have been created throughout the book, making the conflicts in the book constant. “There is no conflict, there is no literature”. These female images not only push this literary masterpiece to the climax of ups and downs, but also make the work full of vivid details. This paper will mainly analyze the two female images of Jin Cuilian and Yan Poxi, and discuss the causes behind the shaping of female images/fate, as well as the reference significance for women today.
