東西相會:住居文化融匯視角下的上海里弄形態溯源與身份解構

When East Meets West: Morphology Traceability and Identity Deconstruction of Shanghai Lane Neighborhood Under the Perspective of Dichotomy and Fusion of Dwelling Cultures

在里弄學研究的熱點趨向於關注里弄形態的保護和開發利用之際，文章提出從詞源學和城市發展的角度對里弄住宅的身份特徵和空間形態進行多維度的解構，是目前里弄歷史街區保護和石庫門申遺的應有之義。文章採用二分法對中國古典單元聚居制度和西方聯排住宅制的發展脈絡進行梳理，在對現有里弄研究論述範式展開思辨的基礎上，提出里弄住宅是中國傳統的住居形態在由單一主線發展模式演變到兩種住居文化影響下主線模式分化過程中產生的一種近代居住形式。文章認為里弄住宅作為東西方文化技術交流的產物，重新思考其產生的原因和演化過程，有助於釐定里弄住宅在中國住宅發展史上的地位以及里弄形態研究的當代意義。

 

The research hotspot of lane neighborhood is currently focusing on the morphological protection and regeneration. Faced with such tendency, the thesis inversely believes multidimensional analyses of lane neighborhood’s identity characteristics and spatial forms under the perspective of etymology and urban development are an alternative way to the preservation of Shanghai historic precinct and the application of lane neighborhood for the world heritage. Through the summary of the development process of Chinese classical inhabitation system and western townhouse system, the thesis conducts introspection on the current research paradigm and accordingly raises the idea that lane neighborhood is a kind of living pattern which is formed during the process of Chinese traditional dwelling evolving from a single storyline to dichotomization. In conclusion, the thesis reveals revaluation of the emergence and development process of lane neighborhood will contribute to the authentication of the historic location and contemporary significance of lane neighborhood studies.
