本文主要循「性/別政治」觀點審視五大特定空間內所發生之愛情類型,包括療養所、辦公室、校園、家庭、社團戀情,然後依空間與愛情兩者的互動性找出「空間」對愛情所代表的意義,由於1960年之後「空間、性別、權力」三者間聯繫日益深厚,因此本文的「空間」也走向權力指涉的領域,且我將傾向採取米謝•傅科(M. Foucault)以及「後現代抵抗式物質女性主義」的觀點,揭露空間所蘊含的性別權力,包括權力的掌控權、空間監視、隱而不彰卻不容挑戰的「空間圍堵」(spatial containment)等,以及這些權力的施展又如何「規制化」在這些特定空間內所發生的愛情模態。
The purpose of this project is twofold. One is to identify what representative meanings of 'space' have for eros in five specific sectors-rest home, office, family, campus, and union. The other is to illuminate how the power of sex-pol operates in the background to different kinds of love. The topics dealt in this project include the following: (1) synthesis of patterns and models of eros in the five specific spaces; (2) manifestation of gender power in eros and space; (3) strategic analysis of transformation from spatial containment, to gender containment, and to erotic containment.
