    The Heterotopic Agent in Chu T'ien-hsin's "The Old Capital"
    (英語學系, 2012-09-??) Chien-Hsin Tsai
    A number of heterotopias coexist in Taiwanese writer Chu T'ien-hsin's novella "The Old Capital": spaces of memory, reality, history; and here I analyze the female narrator in the story as a "heterotopic agent."Building on Michel Foucault's initial conceptualization of heterotopia as literature, I examine the agency of Chu's narrator in terms of the operation of walking, the act of seeing, and the art of remembering, which, I argue, make the construction of a heterotopic space possible. The purpose of my Foucauldian reading of "The Old Capital" is twofold. On the one hand, it seeks to reconceptualize "heterotopias" in relation to the human subject. On the other hand, it intends to cast a new light on the creative agency of Chu, substantiated in her attempt to rewrite the past, live the present, and realize the future. From the perspective of "heterotopic agent," we may further entertain a creative hermeneutics of contemporary Taiwanese identity.

    書寫空間,書寫差異:麥可‧翁達傑的小說
    (2010) 邱正祥; Chen-hsiang Chiu
    在翁達傑(Michael Ondaatje)的小說中,「空間」可說是反複出現的主題;但甚少有評論者分析其空間面向。本論文將以空間觀點詮釋翁達傑的四部作品:《行過斯洛特》(Coming through Slaughter)、《以獅為皮》(In the Skin of a Lion)、《英倫情人》(The English Patient)與《菩薩凝視的島嶼》(Anil’s Ghost)。縱貫全文的主要論題為:就事件的發生而言,空間本身並非是個給定的靜態結構或背景;空間是各種「他者」生活世界軌跡的相互交疊,顯現為無數的差異與複雜性。 緒論〈翁達傑的小說:邁向空間化的閱讀〉論及「空間化」的重要性。之前評論者傾向透過後設歷史主義(metafictional historicism)解讀翁達傑的作品,認為歷史主義顛覆地重構遭排除的他者敘事。然而我們應視「空間」為動態與差異化的過程,體認他者的敘事必然牽涉到地理空間,敘事無法化約為歷史。重新審視空間乃差異與異質的體現,筆者援引列伏斐爾(Henri Lefebvre)、傅柯(Michel Foucault)與德勒茲(Gilles Deleuze)的空間理論來探討抵抗的空間。第二章〈反再現的空間:《行過斯洛特》〉以列伏斐爾的觀點說明他者空間抗拒再現。本章開頭的題旨為:即便是後現代式的主體亦需佔據空間位置以展現話語行動。基於主體性根植於空間的論點,本文進一步探討小說主角所佔據的主體空間是否能被再現。筆者將以列伏斐爾的「概念空間」(conceived space)、「生活空間」(lived space)與「節奏分析」(rhythmanalysis)回答此提問。第三章〈《以獅為皮》:書寫異質烏托邦〉分析翁達傑如何重寫多倫多城移民的空間經驗,以及他們如何挪用城市空間以作為抵抗策略。《以獅為皮》呈現這樣的矛盾:權力滲透至各空間角落,卻無可避免地遭遇主體的抵抗。傅柯的「異質烏托邦」(heterotopia)概念有助於我們理解此矛盾:宰制與反抗、秩序與失序實為共存關係。第四章〈解構中心∕邊緣:《英倫情人》中的德勒茲式繪圖學〉首先批判中心∕邊緣的空間典範:對照於充滿霸權與壓迫的中心,邊陲常被浪漫化為抵抗的場域;然而此空間觀奠基於二元對立邏輯。為突顯空間是更複雜的交疊過程,筆者以德勒茲與瓜達理的「平滑空間」(smooth space)及「條紋空間」(striated space)來重新思考空間的動態關係:空間是力量(force)匯聚的場域(field),這些力量時而相互角力,產生矛盾;時而構連,機動接合(assemblaged);時而組織疆域(territorialized),又忽而解疆域化(deterritorialized)。第五章〈逃逸家園─移動中的空間歸屬感:《菩薩凝視的島嶼》〉指出作者翁達傑未將邊緣(如斯里蘭卡)置於優位,以返(反)寫(write back)帝國;相反地,他挑戰反殖民(anti-colonial)論述中常見的思維:邊陲,亦即被殖民的母國,代表應許「培力」(empowerment)的所在,俾使被殖民的主體尋回國族認同。對此,筆者將論述家園的概念如何受區位政治(politics of location)所建構,並探討此概念如何在跨國移動的情境下面臨解構。

    Aesthetic Investigations and Foucauldian Practices
    (英語學系, 2002-01-??) Douglas Scott Berman
    In the years since Foucault’s death in 1984, his works have gained an ever-widening circle of adherents and, more importantly, have been the basis for innumerable critical studies in fields as far ranging as sociobiology and legal ethics. Foucault’s enormous intellectual range and ability to traverse disciplines have made him especially useful to cultural studies. Within cultural studies, concepts such as the panopticon, the episteme, and the specific intellectual have been readily adopted; however, cultural studies practitioners often fail to grasp the specificity of Foucault’s critical interventions or their internal complexity. In the following essay, I look first at how a few critics have employed Foucault in their work. I then turn to a text Foucault himself edited and taught, I Pierre Riviere, in hopes of locating a core of residual energy that cannot be readily pressed into the service of an overarching theory or method. In sum, this essay suggests that while we may readily accept Foucault’s influence and usefulness for different fields, we should not overlook the specific context in which Foucault’s own work occurs or, more generally, overlook a resistance in post-structuralism to being transformed into a systematic and coherent enterprise.
