Abstract
As a product of artistic imagination of human beings in their childhood,myths represent the human beings' rich imagination and romantic emotions.Compared with the ancient Greek myths,there were few romantic love myths in ancient Chinese ancient myths,the reason is that in the process of transmitting mythology,the later generation scholars deliberately historicize and deify these love myths.The changes taking place in the transmitting process of the love myths provide clues for us to study cultural thoughts in ancient Chinese society.
