他者之镜——黄遵宪《日本杂事诗》中的日本形象

The Mirror of the Other: The Image of Japan in the Poems on Japanese Affairs

黄遵宪及其日本研究在近代中国产生过重大影响,借助形象学对《日本杂事诗》进行研究,有助于彰显日本形象的价值,透视中国社会转型期的相关问题。在"他者—自我"的演进中,"开眼看日本"是一个突破,意味着中日关系摆脱旧日窠臼,中国开始以日本形象来反观自我。另一方面,黄遵宪笔下明治日本的形象表现出时代和个人的复杂情形,这个"新旧同异之见"并存的复合体,实质是"乌托邦—意识形态"对他者形象的争夺,在一定程度上刷新了日本形象,推动了中国社会的进步。

Huang Zunxian and his study of Japan had a profound effect in modern China. Studying the Poems on Japanese Affairs with the method of imagology contributes to express the value of the Japanese image and to study the problems in this period of transition in Chinese society. In the evolution of 'Auto-Hetero', it was a breakthrough to square up to Japan. This perspective implies that the relationship of China and Japan no longer had the old pattern and that China started the way of introspection with the help of the Japanese image. In addition, Meiji Japan described by Huang Zunxian conveys the complicated situation of the age and of individuals. The essence of this mixture of advanced and backward views is the fight for a hetero image between utopia and ideology. To a certain degree, these poems renewed the Japanese image and promoted the progress of Chinese society.
