博物館中的國族想像－葉石濤文學紀念館的國族文學論述

葉石濤文學紀念館於2012年，在臺南市政府營運之下，設立於與作家出生同年落成的前山林事務所。本研究以葉石濤文學紀念館為研究對象，分析葉石濤文學紀念館展覽主題，嘗試理解官方在推廣文化，並以此為建構臺灣認同的策略與實踐。一方面，本研究探討館內展品的意涵，以及彼此之間的互文性；此外，也探討該館策劃的導覽解說，尤其是配合展覽舉辦的戶外地景踏查活動，作為博物館論述的延伸。結論指出，該館的展覽以及解說員解說的內容，以葉石濤作家本人的生活與文學書寫為基礎，期以文學活動強化臺灣國族意識。文本隨著時間與空間的延伸，使已故作家與其書寫，超越博物館展品的靜態與文學的抽象本質，而能和民俗、歷史以及臺灣的集體記憶等日常事物結合，展現官方論述建構當代臺灣國族認同的具體實踐。

並列摘要

In 2012, a former forestry office, which was established in 1925, the year writer Yeh Shyr-Tao was born, was chosen as the space for a literary museum by the Tainan City Government. Through the case of the Yeh-Shyr-Tau Literary Memorial Museum, this research aims to discuss how the government advocates local culture as a means to construct national identity. The methodology includes an exploration of the intertextual associations among the museum exhibits, to derive a clear sense of how this museum represents the national identity of Taiwan. In addition, regularly scheduled guided tours of the surrounding outdoor literary landscapes are a extension of this museum's discourse. Based on exhibitions and guided tours, as well as Yeh's life and literary works, literary activities appear to strengthen Taiwan's national consciousness. The intertextual links of the exhibited material, integrated with the people, history, and collective memory of the literary landscape, show that it plays a larger role than just static objects. For this reason, the Yeh Shyr-Tao Literary Memorial Museum is an ideal case for representing the official strategy to redefine national imagination and to reshape contemporary Taiwan's identity.
