後現代文學中的戀愛觀與家庭觀―以江國香織《那年，我們愛得閃亮亮》為例―

Reconceptualizing Love and Family in Post-modern Literature –Ekuni Kaori’s Twinkle

有戀愛小說教母之稱的江國香織，經常以戀愛或家庭為主題來訴說日常生活中的非日常性，其作品廣受女性讀者喜愛，在現代文學裡也佔有重要的一席之地。然而表面上看似平穩的敘事表現，字裡行間卻隱藏著作者企圖顛覆各種價值觀或制度的叛逆之心，如此具有雙面特質的江國文學，其文本深處隱藏著難以抹滅的暗黑與封閉性。

本論文以江國香織之代表作《那年，我們愛得閃亮亮》為主要文本分析對象，深入剖析創作動機與作品的深層結構。進而探討作者如何運用諧擬、反諷、互文性等後現代文學的創作手法以顛覆｢大敘事｣，以及作者如何以另類的觀點體現女性的戀愛觀與家庭觀。

 

Well known as the charisma of romance novels, Ekuni Kaori often features themes of love or family to depict the extraordinariness of daily life. As a popular novelist, her works have occupied a unique position in modern Japanese literature. However, beyond the surface of fair expression, the texts usually reveal the writer’s subversive attempts to rebel against the grand narrative. With ambivalence, Ekuni’s works are inherited with indelible darkness and entrapment.

In this paper, I will critically examine the text of Ekuni’s Twinkle Twinkle in order to elucidate the motif and its context that are worthy of investigation. Also, I will elaborate on how Ekuni applies post-modern writing strategies, such as parody, irony and intertextuality, to construct an alternative way of interpreting concepts of love and family that are liberated from all kinds of existing ideologies.
