21世紀的世界公民地重要課題之一為SDGs(Sustainable Development Goals永續發展目標)。本人思索日本文學研究如何與SDGs結合,發揮文學力量,於是關注了世界知名的越境作家多和田葉子《在地球各角落發光發亮》(2018)、《來自星星的訊息》(2020)、《太陽諸島》(2022)三部曲作品。本論文參酌先前的2部作品的研究成果,主要以第3部《太陽諸島》(2022)為考察對象。 經過濾《太陽諸島》中描繪之重點事例,分析並考察其意義,可以彙整出以下三点的結論。首先是彰顯出選定波羅地海船行航路的用意,是在於歷經長途旅程後「回歸初衷」的訊息。其次是《太陽諸島》書名,意謂著太陽所遍照全球各地是個不分族群的統體世界。又從《太陽諸島》所提及環境保護、性別等議題看來,整篇《太陽諸島》反映出17個SDGs目標中,除了SDGs13之外的16個目標。 如此從永續發展的社會意識而論,多和田葉子透過文學作品將SDGs議題融入其中,並充分發揮出文學力量,可謂名符其實的世界知名作家。 One of the essential challenges for global citizens in the 21st century is to advance the motion of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In this context, it is conceivable that research on Japanese literature may contribute to these goals. Following my studies on the first two works "Scattered All Over the Earth" (2018) and "Hoshi ni Honomekasarete" (2020), I have selected "TaiyōShotō", literally "The Archipelago of Sun", the third work in Yoko Tawada's trilogy, as a subject of study, as the author has a considerable reputation as a transboundary writer with her other works,. Upon analyzing and reflecting on the events depicted in " TaiyōShotō," I conclude that three main points stand out. First, by choosing the Baltic Sea route, the author conveys the message of returning to one's original self after a long journey. Second, the title " TaiyōShotō" connotes the integration of all areas of the planet illuminated by the sun into a unified whole. Finally, the themes of environmental protection and gender portrayed in the work enable us to infer that all the 16 SDGs goals, with the exception of SDG 13, are vividly portrayed in the novel. It is noteworthy that Yoko Tawada has showcased her ability to leverage the genre of Japanese literature to address the challenges posed by the SDGs and emerged as a globally renowned writer who embodies the power of Iiterature. |
