青樓場域之分析

The analysis of the filed in ancient China brothel

布爾迪厄（Pierre Bourdieu）以「場域」（field）理論探討行動主體與結構之間的關係。場域這一「力場」（a field of forces），是由各種社會地位和職位所建構出來的空間，其性質決定於這些空間中個人所占據的社會地位和職務。本論文嘗試用布爾迪厄的場域理論，分析青樓這一社會結構裡的種種關係。青樓是娼妓與狎客以自身所擁有的各種資本為籌碼，在雙方心照不宣的默契與規則下，進行著各懷目的的競爭遊戲。除青樓場域內部的競爭之外，青樓與文學場域、科試官場也存在著互利拔昇或藉名諷諭的活動關係。
