摘　　要：雷祖陈文玉并非历史上的真人,唐宋有关陈文玉事迹的文献,都是明清以下伪造出来的。陈文玉是统治者为神道设教的政治需要、民间雷神崇拜习俗、通俗文学创作合力虚拟出来的人物。陈文玉虽是虚拟人物,但他在文化史上有着不可否认的独特价值。'Father of Thunder',Chen Wenyu,is not a real person in history,historical documents about whom in the Tang and Song dynasties were all fabricated after the Ming and Qing dynasties.He is an imaginary character cooperatively invented by popular literature out of the need of the governors to moralize people through ghosts and gods in light of the folkway of worshiping the god of thunder.As a fictional character his unique cultural value in history is undeniable..

关 键 词：陈文玉 虚拟的历史人物 陈文玉传说的文化价值
