歷史的寄存：施叔青《三世人》中的身／物

Historical Archive：The Study on Body and Material in Shi Shu-ching's Three generations of people

本文將以施叔青（1945-）的《三世人》為例，觀察其筆下特有的歷史書寫現象—歷史物質化、表層化甚至檔案化的情況，深究歷史小說檔案化的特質為何。首先從歷史書寫的方向切入，以「檔案」（archive）與「物質」（material）的向度輻射，接著透過施叔青的小說，觀察歷史在文學中呈現的特殊樣貌，對其意義進行思辨與分析，在懷舊與謄寫之中呈現小說家對於歷史的詮釋。檔案／寄存取向的歷史小說不再辯證其資料之真／偽，而是在小說中形構了以現時為基點的歷史氛圍，儘管不可能完整，但它的確嘗試建立一個具有過去形象的歷史觀點。從另一方面看《三世人》代表的意義是，作家以創作回應歷史書寫如何可能，在物質與聲明的檔案之中，透過身／物的相互參照，文本與檔案／寄存的概念逐漸相關，歷史進而與現時產生了交集和連結。
