和世界上許多國家一樣,在日本長達兩千多年的歷史洪流裡殉情事件不斷的被描述、歌詠著。特別是元祿時期,殉情事件如同傳染病般四處擴散開來。類似今日報章雜誌的瓦版、還有浮世草子和演劇也常常以殉情事件為題材。現今為大家所熟知的近松門左衛門名作「曾根崎心中」和「心中天之網島」也是這個時代的產物。筆者發覺雖然這兩部作品同樣取材於殉情事件,但是近松門左衛門對殉情的描述有了很大的改變。因此,本論文將以近松門左衛門根據當時庶民大眾的殉情事件為題材的作品群作為考察對象。以小學館.新編日本古典文學全集『近松門左衛門集2』為分析文本。 本論文的研究目的主要有兩點,對於近松門左衛門的殉情物1.作者如何描寫殉情這一題材2.作品裡呈現出近松的殉情觀又或近松凝視死的視線是如何?全篇論文共分為五章,除了序論和結論外,第二章、第三章和第四章為本論的部分。第二章說明近松創作殉情物的時代背景,並且分析同時代的其他作品如何描述殉情。第三章透過與「曾根崎心中」取材同一殉情事件的浮世草子『心中大鑑』「曾根崎之曙」和『傾城風流杉盃』大阪卷之二這兩部作品的比較以釐清「曾根崎心中」的表現性。第四章以第三章所分析的初作「曾根崎心中」的表現性為基準點,另十作依其主題、殉情的動機、主角的敘述將作品分為第一期、第二期、第三期,並對這三階段所展現出不同的殉情表徵進行更深入的論述。 最後結論的部分對於近松門左衛門的殉情物整理歸納出四項特色。分別是第一女性形象。第二、否定金錢價值。第三、家倫理。第四、對死亡的凝視。
