上海淪陷，主流男作家紛紛撤離上海，文壇留下虛位，一群非主流女作家張愛玲、蘇青、施濟美、潘柳黛、程育真等乘此契機在當時上海雜誌發表作品，贏得一時聲譽。日據時期，女作家日常生活題材的書寫，並不僅是為逃避嚴峻的政治檢查。作品表面上沒有烽煙、血腥，卻無處不是戰爭和佔領的影子。小說中滲透的基督教元素和材料多元化，有用作營造氣氛、塑造人物的，有指向一種理想境界追求的，顯現了它作為抗拒凡塵俗世的利器的意義。基督教的書寫，是另類戰爭敘事。本研究以基督教文化的表述為觀察點，分析女作家小說所呈現的宗教情愫，通過具體的文本梳理，審視她們面向混亂、不安的世俗經驗時，對亂世的回應。本文從構築靈魂憩息的空間、尋求精神的淨化和實現自我超越的人格去探討女作家在淪陷中的思考，析論她們尋找克服和消弭生命苦楚的方式，探索她們構築安放靈魂的淨土的理想。
