當詩幻化為想像的圖畫：讀康明思的［就在春天］一詩

Visualized Graphic Imagination: A Reading of E. E. Cummings' 'In Just/ Spring' Poem

康明思的詩歌向以不按牌理出牌而聞名，例如詞類的顛覆使用、俚俗語的翻新、標點與空間的設計、文字的壓縮與拆解等。但細讀之後康明思的詩不只呈現出語言的顛覆性趣味，還透露更深層的哲理出來。藉著文字的扭曲效果，康明思把已呈疲態的語言逼向終極意義的角落，而敦促讀者重新咀嚼語言的原味與新鮮的氣息。就某一層次來說，康明思詩歌語言的清新表現反映了他個人對生存的感受已跳出傳統感覺與表達的窠臼。本論文從穆考諾斯基關於詩歌語言的論點開始研討詩歌語言與表達之間的關係，並進一步探討挖掘康明思詩中的趣味來。

In all the works of Edward Estlin Cummings there is real delight in the absurd, the comical, even the clownish. Yet his poems, under a closer look, reveal a more serious purpose than mere amusement: by distorting the physical appearance of the words and phrases of a tired language, Cummings forces the reader's attention back to their real meaning. In an amazing way, the freshness of language found in Cummings' poetry mirrors the freshness of instinctive response to existence. With a dialectic of poetic language expounded by Mukarovsky and other theoreticians, this paper aims to expose the novelty and experimental nature of Cummings' poetic language, above all, the game and the play of language itself.
