唯物主义的人文学认为,人的感情,因对象而有异。像我和父亲,就在故乡的概念上颇有分歧。父亲所怀想的故乡,就是我的祖籍;而我认为的家乡小城,却仅是父亲成长和打拼的客地。光阴如梭,父亲年事渐高,尤喜怀旧。几次我从外地回家,父亲总要对我叙起往事,悠然神往中常露几分黯然伤怀。老父早就与我和大哥商定,要在有生之年,带我们去拜谒祖辈生于斯、长于斯的那块土地,那个村庄,那段历史。似还愿,似朝圣,抑或是寻根。 Materialistic humanism holds that human feelings vary from one object to another. Like me and my father, on the concept of home quite different. My hometown, which my father cherished, is my ancestral home; and my home town is only a place where my father grew up and worked hard. Time flies, his father getting old, especially nostalgia. Several times I came home from the field, my father always want to recollect the past, leisurely Shen Lu exposed a little sad. The old man had already agreed with me and her elder brother that she should take us to pay homage to the land of the ancestors, the land that grew up in Sri Lanka, the village, the period of history. Like wish, like pilgrimage, or find roots.
