2000年前後,一群透過文學獎拔擢的新世代作家如甘耀明、王聰威、高翊峰、許榮哲、李儀婷、張耀升、伊格言、童偉格等崛起文壇,他們的作品題材皆有取材於鄉土、書寫鄉土的共同傾向。其中,甘耀明以其獨特的文字風格及寫作題材在文學圈豎立起鮮明的旗幟,加上擁有客家的背景,對客語的運用駕輕就熟,同時熟稔客家習俗、地方縣誌及各種鄉野傳奇,所以被視為新世代鄉土書寫作家中的重要代表者。本論文的研究目的即是希望能夠為這位年輕作家及其作品,做一系統的介紹與探析,藉由整理甘耀明的生平與創作歷程,從而探析、歸納其小說的文學風格與美學特質。 本論文以甘耀明2011年以前的四本小說創作為主要研究對象,試圖分析其作品中的題材與主題意識,表現手法與語言特色,並歸納出作者的創作特色。甘耀明以魔幻寫實的手法雜揉童話元素於其中,同時受後現代氛圍影響,運用後現代的寫作技巧表現鄉土題材。敘事語言方面,客家籍的甘耀明使用母語創作,加上獨特的文字語法與多變異的語言/詞彙,成為其小說的特色,也是與眾鄉土作家區隔的重要關鍵。小說裡多數的作品皆以兒童或少年為書寫中心,人物類型大抵以老人與小孩為主。在新世代鄉土書寫的作家群裡,甘耀明以魔幻寫實與後現代手法表現傳統的鄉土或歷史題材,在想像與現實的交融下,展開和過去鄉土作家截然不同的表現方式與文字風格。
