以基督為名：論中國現代文學作品宗教性意義

宗教討論於五四時期非常活躍，而作為新文化運動重要內容之一的文學，當然與風起雲湧的宗教討論脫離不了關係。結合歷史語境與中國當時的獨特處境，本文志在重新思考中國現代文學中的基督教因素與基督教文化本身的差異問題。焦點會放在基督教文化如何被當時知識份子所接納、否定與批判等問題，並且對這些特定的接受方式所存在的問題和缺失進行討論。然而，把中國文學與基督教文化聯繫起來談，並不是企圖以基督教文化為價值標準來遮蔽中國現代文學豐富且複雜的價值和意義。只是參照基督教文化，進一步去梳理中國現代文學的歷史意涵。

並列摘要

During the May Fourth Movement, religious discussions were very active. This is not surprising as religion was one of the important literature topic of the New Culture Movements and was included in their intensive debates. Combining the historical context and the distinctive circumstances in China, this article aims to re-examine the differences between Christian elements and Christian culture in modem Chinese literature. It focuses on the ways it was accepted, rejected and criticised by the Chinese intellectuals toward Christian culture at that time. By doing so, this article will point out the difficulties and deficiencies of those approaches. However, the endeavour of connecting Chinese modem literature with Christian culture is not an attempt to negate the value and significance of Chinese modem literature by setting Christian culture as the role model. In fact, Christian culture played a role in reflecting and providing a deeper understanding in the historical meaning of Chinese modem literature.
