《品花寶鑑》與《世紀末少年愛讀本》研究—以吳繼文《世紀末少年愛讀本》為觀察主軸

晚清時期陳森的「狹邪小說」《品花寶鑑》，是一本敘述「梨園男色」的作品，內容比較細膩深刻地描繪了男性之間的「同性情誼」，故它的出現，被現代學者視為「同志文學鼻祖」，後來吳繼文也就以《品花寶鑑》為「藍本」而創作出《世紀末少年愛讀本》。所謂「世紀末少年愛讀本」，顧名思義，是把「世紀末」、「少年愛」和「讀本」三個概念綰合在一起，吳繼文為什麼要這樣做？《世紀末少年愛讀本》承襲了《品花寶鑑》多少內容？又改寫了那些情節？這是筆者覺得值得探討的學術問題，可是國內目前為止，並沒有相關的碩、博士提出，故筆者不揣譾陋，對兩部著作之間的異同作出比較。經過論文討論，筆者發現：吳繼文的《世紀末少年愛讀本》基本上沿承了《品花寶鑑》的敘事架構，但他也作了技巧上的改寫，諸如視角變換的手法及後設小說的省視，等等；此外，他還加入了個人創作上對「古希臘美少年」的「唯美愛慾」之想像企圖，並在情節上刪除原著吊弄書袋、大玩文字遊戲的「獺祭填寫」內容，以及比較粗鄙俚俗的人情世故的描述。因此，筆者認為，吳繼文對《品花寶鑑》的「改寫」，實際上已經是另一種形式的「創作」呈現，故《世紀末少年愛讀本》和《品花寶鑑》之間，雖然有著架構上的承襲關係，但事實上就內容修改的幅度來看，我們已經可以把《世紀末少年愛讀本》視為當代的一本特殊體裁的小說。

Chen Sen ‘s novel,” Pin Hua Bao Jian”, is a prostitute novels in the end of Qing Dynasty which discussing the relationship and describing exquisitely the love stories between men, and I was also viewed the founder of Homosexual Literature by modern scholars. Therefore, ji-wun, Wu wrote “Century juvenile love story” which is basic on the structure of Chen Sen ‘s novel,” Pin Hua Bao Jian”.。“Century juvenile love story” is consist of three concepts:”the end of the century”,”the love of juvenile ” and the ”love story ”. The purpose of this paper is try to compare these two readings and figure out the common and the different parts.. I provided some viewpoints: first, ji-wun, Wu’s Century juvenile love story continued the structure of the Chen Sen ‘s Pin Hua Bao Jian, but, ji-wun, Wu changed the way in describing the story. For example, he adopted the devices of Metafiction, as a Romantic irony in the context of Romantic works in his literature. Second, he emphasized the images of Pederasty, which is the (usually erotic) relationship between a young man and a pubescent boy outside his immediate family in Ancient Greek, He also cut off the depiction of the real society and simplified the plots. Therefore, in my opinion, even though these two fictions could be viewed as using the same structure, we still could viewed ji-wun, Wu’s rewriting as a new Creatio
