摘要: | 三百多年前,沈光文意外抵台,落腳台灣,開啟台島漢文文化契機,台灣古典文學於焉萌芽。清領時期,「宦遊文學」主導台灣文壇,而後本土的文人逐漸嶄露頭角。清末,內憂外患紛至沓來,促使台灣傳統知識份子意識到文學應該反映在地人民之生活疾苦與民族精神之宏揚。日治時期台灣詩社文化發展達至巔峰階段,同時也是台灣新文學之肇始。近來台灣文學研究蔚為風潮,而此項研究工作則立基於各個區域資料庫的建立、充實,台西、麥寮為雲林濱海邊陲之地,從明末至今,此地相關之研究付之闕如,而田野調查工作更是一項與時間賽跑的爭奪戰,刻不容緩。 筆者生長於雲林,與台西、麥寮兩鄉比鄰而居,對於當地的風土景觀、生活環境及人文活動皆倍感熟悉與親切,深入挖掘之後赫然發覺此地竟蘊含著如此豐饒的人文資產,只是長久蒙塵,不為人所知。期望此篇論文的撰寫能完整呈現台西、麥寮地區文學發展之脈絡,更希望藉此能讓那些沉寂已久的在地文人及其作品重現光華!這也是筆者身為雲林女兒所能為鄉土盡心之處。 本篇論文章節大致分為六章。第一章緒論,敘述本文之研究動機與目的;研究範圍與方法,並探討相關之前人研究成果及文獻資料。第二章參考台灣、雲林、台西、麥寮之地方志與史書,對台西、麥寮之地理環境、歷史沿革及文教概況,作為該地文學發展之時空及人文背景之概述。 第三章以台西秀才、「共同吟社」、「台西三詩家」、「臺西詩人洪能傳」及當代漢詩作家林繼文等人物、作品為主要論述重心。第四章則以麥寮秀才、「麥寮五先」、「麥寮拱樂社」等為主題,進而探討、分析、歸納其特色及其與雲林文壇、台灣文壇之關係。 第五章為戰後台西、麥寮地區新文學之發展研究,以吳龍杉、丁耀林、林國賢、林金陽、吳洋海及張清海等新文學作家及其作品為主題,分析歸納、其特色,並探討台西、麥寮地區新文學與雲林文壇、台灣文壇之關係。 第六章為本文之總結。 Over three hundred years ago, Shen Guang-wen arrived at Taiwan from an unexpected trip, settled down here, and initiated the cultural opportunities for Han Chinese culture on the island of Taiwan. The classic literature of Taiwan thus began to develop. During the Ching Dynasty, the "official-traveling" literature dominated the literary circle of Taiwan, and the local literati began to stand out afterwards. At the end of the Ching Dynasty, due to the internal and external problems of the country, the traditional literati of Taiwan began to realize that literature should reflect the hardship of the local residents and promote the national spirit. During the Japanese Occupation Period, the poetry club culture in Taiwan developed to its peak time, which also led to the emergence of new literature of Taiwan. The literary researches in Taiwan during the recent years have become a popular trend, which is built on the previous construction and enrichment of regional databases. Taisi and Mailiao are at the border of Yunlin coastal area. There has been very little research on this area, ever since the late Ming Dynasty, thus, field investigation of this area is an urgent issue. The researcher grew up in Yunlin, in the neighboring township of Taisi and Mailiao, and thus is very familiar with the local sceneries, living environment, and cultural activities. The in-depth investigation on this area has discovered rich cultural assets, which have been long hidden from the public. This paper aims to comprehensively present the context of literary development in Taisi and Mailiao areas, and revive the magnificence of the local literati and their works. This is also the contribution of a native of Yunlin. This paper is divided into six chapters. Chapter 1 is the introduction, which describes the research motives, purposes, scope and method, and presents the results of literature review. Chapter 2 briefly describes Taisi's and Mailiao's geographic environment, history and literature by taking reference from local gazetteer and history books. Chapter 3 and 4 present the traditional literature development in Taisi and Mailiao region. Since there are more materials to cover in Taisi, Chapter 3 will discuss Taisi first about its development background of traditional literature, important poets and works. Chapter 4 discusses Mailiao's development background of traditional literature, important poets and works, and analyzes the features of traditional literature at these two places and their relationship with the literature circle in Yunlin County as well as in Taiwan. Chapter 5 focuses on the study of the new post-war literature developed in Taisi and Mailiao region. This chapter first briefly describes the development of new literature in the region, the local important authors and their works with a summary of their features, and then discuss the relationship between new literature in Taisi and Mailiao region and the literature circle in Yunlin County as well as in Taiwan. Chapter 6 is the conclusion. |
