Abstract: Jiangxi literary school came into being in the Northern Song Dynasty, and their school consciousness had already matured in the Southern Song Dynasty, while their name was formally established in the Yuan Dynasty. There were three marks for the establishment: First, the genealogy of literary league with Ouyang Xiu as the authentic literary league and the clear concept of literary system; The second is to take jiangxi as the boundary of the regional learning and conscious consciousness of cultural system transmission; Third, it is the auxiliary wing of the outstanding prose masters as the main body of creation, as well as the non-Jiangxi literary writers who vigorously push and illustrate the characteristics of the faction. It can be said that the writers of jiangxi literary school in yuan dynasty adopted tang prose or song prose or both of tang and song prose, which is the epitome of the change in the division and combination of zong tang and song and the deepening of the relationship between tang and song prose in yuan dynasty, and also the beginning of the tang and song school in Ming, qing, tang and song dynasties, and has indelible significance.
