白先勇《孽子》一書的出現在八○年代的臺灣獨樹一格，小說藉由外省第二代之青少年視角觀看七○年代初期的臺北，以及進入那人影幢幢的新公園黑暗王國的過程，為一部真正描寫「臺北人」的作品。本論文就白先勇《孽子》之內容作文本分析，由成長、同志、空間、國族四方面切入，深入探究小說透露之各種訊息。《孽子》描述青少年主人翁離家過後的成長歷程，筆者循其足跡探求當時臺北的樣貌與各地區在小說中的代表意義，當小說人物進入到不同的「場景」，往往促成進一步心靈上的醒覺。本文分析新公園男同性戀的生活方式和相互關係如擬父子、擬兄弟關係與所構成的邦聯形貌，以及異性戀霸權結合父權造成的各種壓制與同性戀予之的回應，並觀察小說中對於軍人角色的敘述，從多重的家庭關係與族群會合兩部分來討論複雜的家國意涵。本文由不同角度切入分析文本，然《孽子》本身呈顯的諸多意義是相互結合的，因此成長、同志、空間、國族四方面乃環環相扣，從作品中並可推知白先勇對於臺北土地與人的用心及觀照，以及對「黑暗王國」子民的關懷。
