创伤记忆与自我困境的言说——论战后归国留日学生的“被动自传”

Traumatic Memories and Self-predicament Narration-Research on the“Passive Autobiography”of Students Returning from Japan after the War

1947年7月1日,国民政府教育部颁布《抗战期间留日学生甄审办法》,规定战时赴日留学业已回国的学生和战后召回的留日学生,应于规定时间内上交自传和思想报告。这些由抗战时期留日学生所写成的自传,现藏于中国第二历史档案馆。战时的形势急变,让青年学生无所适从,在战争环境下留学敌国是一个艰难而无奈的决定。从文本可见,留日学生自传以自我的人生遭遇为素材,主要是对留日经历的回忆和反思。自传以个性化的叙事视角,带有自白、辩解和诉求的心理描写,他们渴望寻求自我认同和他人理解,字里行间蕴含着丰富的情感。

On July 1,1947,the Ministry of Education of the National Government promulgated Measures for the Screening and Examination of Students Studying in Japan during China’s War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression.This regulation stipulated that students in Japan recalled to China after the war should submit their autobiographies and thinking reports.These autobiographies,written by students who stayed in Japan during the war,are now kept in the Second Historical Archives of China.Owing to the abrupt changes during the war,the young students felt at a loss and it was a difficult and helpless decision to study in the enemy country.It is apparent in the text that the autobiographies are based on the students’own life experience,with a personalized narrative perspective and psychological description.They were eager to seek self-identity and understanding from others,with strong emotions between the lines.
