20世纪70年代,香港在拆毁一座旧海车船场的过程中意外地发现了大批华人遗嘱档案。这批遗嘱材料的发现无疑为我们研究中国传统遗嘱继承制度在香港的变异发展提供了宝贵而又丰富的材料,不仪开辟了一个透视占据香港主导地位的华人社会历史的奇特窗口,同时也能帮助我们更深入地了解传统中国文化及家庭制度与以英国法为代表的香港两方制度相互作用的历史。本文通过一系列具体对比,揭示了香港华人遗嘱所保留的浓厚的中国传统文化特征,其重实而轻形式之特点竞与现代遗嘱继承法的发展趋势有不谋而合之处。
In the 1970s, Hong Kong unexpectedly discovered a large number of Chinese testament files during the demolition of a old seagoing shipyard. The discovery of these will materials undoubtedly provided valuable and abundant materials for us to study the variation and development of the traditional inheritance system of testamentary in Hong Kong. It not only opened up a peculiar window for penetrating the social history of Hong Kong’s dominant Chinese community, Help us understand more deeply the history of the interaction between the traditional Chinese culture and the family system and the Hong Kong system represented by the English Law. Through a series of concrete contrastive studies, the article reveals the strong traditional Chinese cultural features retained by the Chinese will in Hong Kong. The characteristics of its emphasis on truth and ignorance coincide with the development trend of modern wills.
