行方不明：白色恐怖與戰後台灣知識分子的認同軌跡－以台南案楊德宗口述歷史為例

本文以台灣戒嚴時期白色恐怖一受難個案－台南案楊德宗為例，探討這一代知識分子，何以在戰後的歷史新章靜默無聲宛若缺席？楊德宗以一殖民地秀異子弟的身份，由本土文化孕育，日式教育養成；戰後在時代轉折裂隙的二二八風暴中，開啟了台灣主體意識；至五○年代壓制異議份子的白色恐怖時期，因參與讀書會討論國是，而被以「參加叛亂組織」繫捕入獄，判刑五年，人權自由深受傷害。出獄後解嚴前，只能以一潛隱斷裂的身分，壓抑自己深層的本土意識。其身分之軌跡，曲折迷離，斷裂不明，無異於跨越終戰時代知識分子的主體認同史。本文試圖開啟塵封檔案，考掘他們在翻越時代的山嶺時，如何因正義直覺，勇於承擔家國責任，卻顛躓震盪險些失足？透過楊德宗的口述歷史，徐徐撥開陳年灰土，挖掘隱藏在他們那一代意識深處的受難記憶，努力描繪這一輩世紀轉折的精神軌跡。

This paper aimed to discuss a victimization case during the martial law era in Taiwan, the case of Dezong Yang in Tainan, and explored the absence and quietness of the intellectuals of his generation in the post-war history. Dezong Yang is a son of colonial academic elites nurtured by local culture and Japanese education. The Taiwan consciousness was raised during 228 Incident, which is the transitional fracture of the post-war era. The 50s was a period in the White Terror when all dissidents were suppressed. Having participated in a study group where intellectuals discussed about state affairs, Dezong Yang was imprisoned for five years due to his ”participation in a rebel group”, for which his human right was seriously violated. After his release before the end of the martial law era, he could only identify himself with an occulted and ruptured identity, suppressing his inner local consciousness. The trajectory of his identity was tortuous, blurred, fractured and unclear, which is tantamount to the subject identity history of the other intellectuals across the end of the post-war era. This paper attempted to reexamine these archives as to discover why they assumed the responsibilities of the state with their intuition of justice in that turbulent era with the danger of tumbling down and falling. Through the oral history narrated by Dezong Yang, we revealed the past, dug deeply into the memory of victimization and tried hard to describe the spiritual trajectory of the generation experiencing the transitions of the 20th century.
