Summary: | 碩士 === 淡江大學 === 中國文學系碩士在職專班 === 94 === The so-called “Hua-Wien literature” was defined as Chinese Literature in broad definition. The overseas Chinese literature is a production when time keeps changing. The appearance of the overseas Chinese literature not only broadened the board of literature but also established the concept of multi- centered literature. The works of overseas fictions played a crucial part among overseas literature history, modern Chinese literature history, and Taiwanese literature history. Both of the expressions and interpretations in overseas fictions reflected the situation of that time and at the same time, showed the writers’ views of the situation. To understand the overseas fictions better, the collection and classification of the overseas fictions should be put more attention.
The thesis is introduced from two perspectives. From one side, the development of the overseas fictions of North America is introduced. At the same time, several pieces of works of the overseas fictions writers are provided. Three short fictions will be specifically analyzed and discussed. Finally, some suggestions and perspectives will be made on the current studies of overseas Chinese literature.
