摘要

This short paper explores relationship between the expression of the text and the content of the subject matter by analyzing the literary works of the Hakka Sage writers and proposes the concept of social Embeddedness and localization of human values in society. Regardless the language expression or the subject of the writing of the authors of the Hakka literature, the main purpose is to explore the underlying spirit of the whole Hakka group in the history of human development. This paper also applies the concept of deep social structure and the revival of Hakka humanism to explain the future of Hakka literature. In addition to the emphasis on literary content and writing skills, more importantly, the mission of writers is to embody the consciousness of Hakka people. That is how the expression of culture, humanism and arts can be expressed through words, so that more people can understand the orientation of such a humanistic spirit.

本文主要藉由分析客家先賢文學小說作品，說明其文字的表達形式與題材述說內容之間的關聯性，並且提出社會深層定着與當地化的人文價值的觀念。本文說明客家文學作者的語文表達方式或書寫主體，雖然有所改變；但是其主要的目的，還是要探究整個客家族群，在人文發展歷史過程中的基本精神以及意涵，以及如何建構起客家人文主義。本文運用社會深層架構與文化復振的觀念，說明今後客家文學，除了在語文內容跟撰寫技巧方面的講究外，更重要的是如何體現做一個客家意識的文化人文藝術的表現，怎麼藉著文字的方式表達，讓更多人能夠理解認同這樣的一個人文精神的取向。
