【簡介】

「後保釣抒情：郭松棻、李渝與臺灣現代派文學政治」深度探討文學與政治，書寫和歷史的（不）可能對話。奠定於臺灣現代派經典作家郭松棻、李渝及其作品的檔案基礎，演講將以「後保釣抒情」作為關鍵字，企圖在描述與分析的層次上，分進合擊地對臺灣現代派如何在文學與政治的峽谷間盱衡進退提出新的一套解釋。

此處所謂「後保釣」的「後」同時具備抽離的視角（後設）與事件之後（後遺）的雙重指涉；而二者皆瞄準對於保釣運動──一個現實介入的轉喻──的反身思考。此一動勢實現在文學表現上，毋寧為郭松棻、李渝，乃至現代派，環繞「抒情」理念不懈的推敲暨求索。

更重要的是，既然抒情的起興總已包含歷史的動機，處於後保釣抒情的境遇中，文學與政治的互動於是並非按照先後次序連結鋪陳的線性因果律；共感於後保釣抒情的律動，政治行動和文學書寫未曾割裂：行動從其根本就預設了書寫，書寫歸根究柢預想著行動。

Abstract

"The Lyrical in the Post-Baodiao Time: Kuo Song-fen, Lee Yu, and the Literary Politics of Taiwan Modernism" undertakes an in-depth inquiry into the (im)possible dialogue between literature and politics, between writing and history. Grounded in the archives of Kuo Song-fen and Lee Yu, two canonical writers of Taiwan modernism, and of their works, the lecture takes "the post-Baodiao lyrical" as its keyword. Proceeding on the descriptive and the analytical levels at once, and converging from both fronts, it seeks to advance a new account of how Taiwan modernism gauged its advances and retreats within the ravine between literature and politics.

The "post" in "post-Baodiao" carries a double reference: a detached vantage point (the meta) and the condition of coming after an event (the aftereffect). Both are aimed at a reflexive thinking of the Baodiao movement, itself a metonym for intervention in the real. As this momentum takes shape in literary expression, it is nothing other than the tireless deliberation on, and pursuit of, the idea of the "lyrical" by Kuo Song-fen, Lee Yu, and indeed the modernists at large.

More significantly, since the lyrical impulse always already harbors a historical motive, the interaction between literature and politics under the condition of the post-Baodiao lyrical does not unfold according to a linear causality of sequence and consequence. Attuned to the rhythm of the post-Baodiao lyrical, political action and literary writing were never sundered: action presupposes writing from its very root, and writing, in the final analysis, anticipates action.
