本文旨在討論陳映真作品中的基督教救贖思想，選擇〈賀大哥〉、〈山路〉、〈趙南棟〉三篇小說為研究文本。主要論證有三：1.鋪陳出這三篇小說的共同結構。2.論述三篇以「犧牲－封聖」之邏輯標榜人之崇高，從而建立陳映真式的「人格等級表」。3.更甚，本文將論證這三篇作品，個別隱藏著陳映真思想的祕密核心，即「快樂的罪行」的荒謬性，與陳映真的社會主義思想實則還是籠罩在基督教的彌賽亞歷史主義底下。本文之分析並非是一種標新立異或文本拆毀，僅是要論證出陳映真隱藏的罪觀與救贖精神，並說明陳映真思想的矛盾，及有時堅持意的牢結的令人匪夷不解之處。

This article discusses Chen Ying-Zhen’s ideas of salvation in three of his works of fiction: “Brother He”, “Mountain Road”, and “Zhao Nan Dong.” First, it analyzes the common structure of these three fictions. Secondly, it investigates the writing strategy of Chen’s “sacrifice-canonization” logic, which unveils how he establishes “personality scale” for his protagonists. Thirdly, the case is made that each of these three works exhibit hidden secrets of Chen’s ideology, i.e. “Mountain Road” implies the absurdity of “happy fault (Felix culpa)” and Chen’s socialist ideology but in fact is merely a substitute for Christian Messiah historicism.
