作为文学家的曹操，对文学发展的作用与其在政治、军事上的作用一样，都是巨大的。由于环境、思想的变化，他勇敢冲破传统的藩篱，大胆吐露真情；他志向高远，富于理性思考；他喜好书法、音乐，并有较高的造诣。这使他成为一代文风的开创者，成为建安文学的实际奠基人，成为历史上并不多见的集政治家、军事家、文学家于一身的超世之杰，对当朝及后世都产生了很大的影响。 Cao Cao, as a writer, plays a huge role in the development of literature as much as his political and military role. Due to the change of environment and thought, he bravely broke through the traditional barriers and boldly revealed his true feelings. He is ambitious and rational in thinking. He likes calligraphy, music and has higher attainments. This made him the pioneer of a generation of literary style and became the actual founder of Jian’an Literature. He became a rare outstanding historian, politician, writer and writer in both the generation and the future. A great impact.
