When, lastly, various opponents of the casuistical method object that the moralist occupies himself exclusively with sins and their analysis, with the "dark side" of human life, let them remember that it is physically impossible to say everything in one breath, that, just as in many other arts and sciences, a division of labour may also be advantageous for the science of moral theology, that the particular purpose of manuals and lectures may be limited to the education of skilled confessors and that this purpose may very well be fulfilled by centering attention on the dark side of human life.

The reasons for focusing my attention on the rural Hakka community inGuangdong are as follows:(1) Guangdong, a province with a total population ofabout 69 million ,has the largest population of the Hakka in mainland China: 14million Hakka people; the rest being 38 million Guang Fu people, 16 million of FuLao zhou people.(2) 95% of the Hakka people in Guangdong Province used to live inrural areas, and 70% of them are still living there now 50 years after the founding ofthe People's Republic of China, the rural area is therefore more representative of thediscussion of the cultural adaptability of the Hakka than the city .(3) There have beenfewer losses of traditions in the rural area than in the citiy in the drastic socialtransformation that is taking place in China, moreover, the rural area is experiencinga return to the past at a higher level after 15 years of modernization. The longer theculture of a subject lasts, the better compatibility with the environment it proves tobe embowered with, and this helps to reveal the compatibility and imcompatibility ofthe Hakka people of Guangdong with their environment , a subject to which thepresent dissertation is devoted.

把注意力集中在广东农村的客家社会，理由如下：（1）广东6896.77万人口中，扣除少数民族的人口数字，广府人有3800万，福佬人有1600万，客家人有1400万，广东是中国大陆客家人最多的省份；（2）广东省的客家人过去有95%住在乡村，建国将近50年，70%以上的客家人仍然居住在乡村，论述客家的文化适应，乡村当然要比城市有代表性；（3）在中国急剧的社会变革中，农村丧失的传统毕竟要比城市少，特别是经历了最近15年现代化之后，农村在更高的层面向昨日回复，一个对象，如果它的文化延续性较长，就证明它具有与环境兼容的较好能力，揭示广东客家与环境的兼容和相异关系，这正是本文想要着力阐述的。

Fourteen years had changed the worthy merchant, who, in his thirty-sixth year at the opening of this history, was now in his fiftieth; his hair had turned white, time and sorrow had ploughed deep furrows on his brow, and his look, once so firm and penetrating, was now irresolute and wandering, as if he feared being forced to fix his attention on some particular thought or person.
