摘要
白先勇《台北人》的表现主题除了以“今昔之比”为主要内容的时间主题外,还有一个更为本质且少有人关注的空间主题,此空间主题可称之为“神圣空间”。在《台北人》中,白先勇通过“时间的空间化”和“空间的时间化”,使空间成为一种具有表现力的积极因素,空间不仅是时间的标识物,而且还是推动时间之流的“框架性的事物综合体”。这导致“今昔之比”的表现内容最后却落实为两个空间的对比,在此基础上,“神圣空间”主题得以凸显和确立。《台北人》叙事中存在着“神圣空间”/“世俗空间”互相比照的空间结构。在此结构中,“神圣空间”是小说人物灵性存在的关键所在,当人物被“贬谪”入“世俗空间”,其灵性以及与灵性相关联的美好品质便趋于消亡。小说人物的塑造就是围绕此“神圣空间”主题而展开。
In addition to the time theme of“the comparison between the present and the past”as its main content,Bai Xianyong’s Taibei People also has a more essential and less noticed spatial theme,which can be called“sacred space”.In Taibei People,Bai Xianyong makes space a positive factor with expressive power through the“spatialization of time”and“temporalization of space”.Space is not only a marker of time,but also a“comprehensive framework”that drives time flow.As a result,the manifestation of“the comparison between the present to the past”is finally implemented as a comparison of two spaces,on which the theme of“sacred space”is highlighted and established.There exists a spatial structure in the narrative of“Taipei People”where“sacred space”(mainland)and“secular space”(Taipei)are compared to each other.In this structure,the“sacred space”is the key to the spiritual existence of the characters in the novel.When the characters are“relegated”to“secular space”,their spirituality and the good qualities associated with spirituality tend to disappear.The portrayal of characters in the novel revolves around the theme of“sacred space”.
