「地方」與「記憶」——郝譽翔的「北投」書寫
A Meaningful Location and Memory——Beitou Writing of Hao Yu-Hsiang
摘要
郝譽翔的北投書寫是藉由記憶「地方」（a meaningful location），以達到其生命的自我療癒與自我和解的一段旅程。 《逆旅》，可視為是開啟郝譽翔「北投書寫」的重要代表作品。書中所述雖是依隨著父輩的腳步返歸山東，然此中種種對於「鄉」的尖銳提問與自我質疑，將《幽冥物語》及《溫泉洗去我們的憂傷》中的「北投」顯題化。作者通過與自我記憶連結的書寫模式，將「北投」由一個被觀看、被認知的「空間」，成為一承載生命記憶與自我覺察的「地方」。 本論文以作品探討為軸心，以作家身世、地方文史材料等外緣資料為輔，由「自我認同」、「生命隱喻」及「地方記憶」串連《逆旅》、《幽冥物語》及《溫泉洗去我們的憂傷》三部著作。 《逆旅》探討作家以「鄉」尋找「自我」再發現的過程，形成郝譽翔北投書寫的內在動機；《幽冥物語》接續解讀「北投」與作者生命主軸的重新建構，成為理解郝譽翔北投書寫的重要內容；《溫泉洗去我們的憂傷》則是作者藉由記憶「北投」、書寫「北投」，達到生命自我療癒和自我和解的過程。
並列摘要
Hao Yu-xiang’s Beitou writings is a journey of self-healing and self-reconciliation through the recollections of “a meaningful location”. 《逆旅》(A Journey to Return) can be considered as an important signature piece in Hao’s Beitou writings. In this book the author retraces the life and journey of her father all the way back to Shandong Province, China. Hao unrelentingly questions the concept of “hometown” and expresses self-doubt throughout the book. This highlights the theme “Beitou” which is also found in her works《幽冥物語》(Nether World) and《溫泉洗去我們的憂傷》(The Hot Spring Washes Away Our Sorrow). By writing about the connections with her own memories, the author transforms “Beitou” from a passively seen and recognized “space” into “a meaningful location” which carries a lifetime of memories and her own self-awareness. This paper focuses on the analyses of Hao’s works with additional information such as the life and background of the author and local history records as supplemental materials. The themes of self-identity, life metaphors and local memory found in these three books (《逆旅》、《幽冥物語》and《溫泉洗去我們的憂傷》) will be discussed. 《逆旅》is about the author’s re-discovery of self through the perspective of “hometown”, and this formed the internal motive for Hao’s Beitou writings. 《幽冥物語》carries on the theme and continues to decipher the reconstruction of “Beitou” and Hao’s life, which makes this book an important piece for understanding Hao’s Beitou writings.《溫泉洗去我們的憂傷》records the self-healing and self-reconciliation process the author underwent by remembering and writing about Beitou.
