林芙美子文學中流動性意象之探討─以〈河沙魚〉為例─

本研究將以性別理論的角度來重新解讀林芙美于戰後初期較具有代表性的作品〈河沙魚〉，在與作者其他相關主題之作品相互比較之下，透過深層的文本分析探討作者以女性身體為出發點的書寫，如何體現困頓失依的戰後女性突破既有傳統家庭制度的箝制，以力圖從戰後廢墟中生存下來，以及這些女性如何面對自己不可抑制卻又必遭既有禮制所譴懲的情慾問題。本研究將運用西蘇之陰性書寫所啟發的水與女人的關係來解碼作者如何以河水、雨水、風等流動性的意象為隱喻來象徵女性情慾，進而剖析作者如何透過女性那流動的、不可駕取情慾的描寫向父權體制所代表的意識型態來挑戰。

並列摘要

The post-war havoc in Japan represented the collapse of the old power paradigms. Although the defeat brought to the Japanese people the unprecedented national humiliation and unaccountable family tragedy, for those women who used to be confined by Confucian ideology and traded on account of men's profits were given a chance to defy the male-centered power structures arbitrarily imposed upon them.In this research I conduct text analysis to re-examine the context of one of Hayashi Fumiko's representative short stories, ”River Goby,” while comparing to Hayashi's other contemporary works at the same time, to illustrate how the female protagonist struggles to resist the family narration and to pursue her libido for the first time. To facilitate the discussion, I will be applying Cixous' theory of ”ecriture feminine” to demonstrate how Hayashi uses the flowing images, such as river, rain, as a metaphor of female sexuality, and how she makes visible the ways in which the body has been gendered to produce and maintain the power economies of patriarchy.
