军国主义语境里的殖民地书写——夏目漱石《满韩漫游》辍笔考辩

Colonial Writing in the Context of Militarism: A Research on the Halt of the Serialization of Soseki Natsume's Mankan Tokorodokoro

夏目漱石的《满韩漫游》自发表以来就受到研究者们的多方批判。在本文中,笔者尝试适当地跳出既有的批判框架,将《满韩漫游》的文本放回到同时代的语境中进行相对化处理。之后我们会发现,在小说《肉弹》的热销以及"伊藤博文暗杀事件"的发生这一背景下,夏目漱石始终与当时日本社会的民族主义、军国主义保持了一定的距离。他决定中止《满韩漫游》的连载,并非仅仅因为客观因素的影响,更重要的是作者本人主动决定辍笔并选择了沉默。而这一举措不仅表明了《满韩漫游》本身所具有的批判性,同时也是他转换写作策略后在《门》、《现代日本的开化》等作品中对日本社会展开批判的前提。

Since its publication in Japan, Soseki Natsume’s MankanTokorodokoro has drawn widespread criticism from researchers.＆nbsp;Beyond the current critical perspective, this paper attempts to analyze, describe and reinterpret this complicated work by re-entering its historical scene. It has found that under the context of the great popularity of Nikudan and “Assassination of Ito Hirobumin”, Soseki Natsume has kept a certain distance from the nationalism and militarism prevalent in 1909s’ Japanese society. His determination of stopping the serialization of Mankan Tokorodokoro on Asahi Shimbun was a result of the impact of the social context, and more importantly, the writer’s choice of silence. This act reflects not only Mankan Tokorodokoro’s criticism towards the Japanese society of the time but also a premise of criticism of Japan’s modernity shown in his later works such as Mon, Gendainihon no kaika.
