語りとしての物語と歴史の交錯–西川満 『台湾縱貫鉄道（1）～（11）』ノート–

交錯於物語與歷史之間──有關西川滿《台灣縱貫鐵道》作品創作時隨筆揮灑之點滴手記（Interplay of Story and History as Narrating; a Reading Note of Nishikawa Mitsuru 'Taiwan Jyukan Tetsudou'）

將歷史小說與記載歴史當作一個完整的「作品」來看的話，兩者皆可稱為專門性創作類別的敘述成果。因為歷史小說與記載歴史，皆是與「現實」有著多面相關係的象徵。「作品」的內容，乃是日常使用的語言，掌握現實之行為表現。本論文依據上述的觀察，著眼於台灣日據時代有名的日本人作家西川滿創作《台灣縱貫鐵道》的歷史背景以及創作作品創作時隨筆揮灑之點滴手記間之關係，進行檢討研讀「作品」時敘述者處於如何的「現實」狀況？又如何展現此「現實」？而結果顯示：敘述者沒有擁有展現對於所處的當時現實狀況的方法。於是就此點可以斷言，空想與非空想間的差異性其實是極少。 When the historical romance and the history description are seen as ”Work”, both of them is the results of narrating about a special genre. The historical romance and the history description are symbols of various relations to ”Reality”. The content of ”Work” goes side by side with the act that the daily language subject understands the reality. In this thesis, the historical background of 'Taiwan Jyukan Tetsudou' that the writer Nishikawa Mitsuru had left for the modern history of Taiwan is taken up. And, this thesis has examined what ”Reality” in which the narrator was left we have to reproduce to read ”Work”. As a result, we do not have the method of reproducing a situation at that time faced by the narrator. Moreover, the difference between the fiction and nonfiction is unlimitedly small in this point.
