被隱蔽的文學想像？──以明代粵西筆記《赤雅》的知識傳述與書寫型態為討論核心

Shrouded Literary Imagination? – A Study Based on the Knowledge Transmission Records and the Writing Modes of the Chi-Ya

本文聚焦於西南地域中的「粵西」（當今地理中國的「廣西」），以鄺露《赤雅》為主要考察對象，並旁及魏濬《嶠南瑣記》、王濟《君子堂日詢手鏡》、王士性《廣志繹》、謝肇淛《百粵風土記》等筆記，關注其涵蓋的知識面向，剖析其書寫的語境、呈現的筆法及其閱讀的效應。透過細讀與研索，再現宦遊西南、行旅粵西者的空間經驗，彰顯其文學意涵。文中考察《赤雅》一類行旅筆記所顯現的粵西族群與異域知識，奇觀勝景與古典範式的地理書寫，辨析「筆記」的文化情境、文本傳播與書寫型態，進一步審視知識的觀看之道，反思文學性的表現手法。透過本文之考辨，一者可豐富西南地域的文學研究，亦可探討筆記此文類的知識向度以及向來被隱藏的文學想像。

The essay brings to the fore the five bijis (notes) accomplished in Yuexi (Guangxi nowadays) during the Ming period, the Chi-Ya by Lu Kuang, the Jiaonan Suoji by Jun Wei, the Junzitang Ri Xun Shoujing by Ji Wang, the Guangzhiyi by Shixing Wang, and the Bai Yue Fengtu Ji by Zhaozhe Xie. Our focus lies equally on these bijis' (notes) (the Chi-Ya above all) knowledge coverage, contextual environments, representation skills, and their influence on the readers. Such scrutiny helps to reconstruct the life experience of Yuexi local officials and travelers, and thereupon leads us to appreciate the literary significance in these bijis (notes). After scrutinizing such details as the depiction of the space, the people, and the natural wonders (of Yuexi), the essay further identifies the bijis' (notes) contextual environments, knowledge-transmitting function, and also their writing modes. This is where we get to reevaluate knowledge and how “writing” can be viewed and to rethink the possibilities of literature research. Therefore, we believe that this essay may not only contribute to the study of the Southwestern literary sphere, but it may also reveal the knowledge-transmitting function and the long shrouded literary imagination behind the genre of bijis (notes).
