如何“寫中國”？——陳映真的“愛荷華之問”與左翼理想主義的困境

徐紀陽 林茹楨

摘 要：陳映真關於如何寫中國的“愛荷華之問”，在王安憶腦中縈繞多年並深刻影響了她的創作。整體來看，王安憶主要通過其早年形成的“烏托邦”結構接納陳映真的理想主義，她將陳映真視為具有理想人格的偶像，並以之為精神座標。不過，王安憶未能回應陳映真思想中的反帝反殖民立場、第三世界視野及現代性批判等內容，顯示了兩岸知識份子的歷史性錯位。通過王安憶對陳映真的接受，可測度左翼理想主義在大陸後革命語境中所能抵達的邊界。

How to “Write China”? ——Chen Yingzhen’s “Iowa Question” and the Predicament of Left-Wing Idealism

XU Jiyang LIN Ruzhen

Abstract: Chen Yingzhen’s “Iowa Question” concerning how to write about China lingered in Wang Anyi’s mind for years and profoundly shaped her literary oeuvre. Broadly speaking, Wang incorporates Chen’s idealism primarily through the utopian framework she developed in her early career, regarding Chen as a paragon of moral integrity and a spiritual benchmark. However, Wang stops the short of engaging with the anti-imperialist and anti-colonial stance, the Third World perspective, or the critique of modernity that are central to Chen’s thought. A silence that reveals a historical dislocation between intellectuals across the Taiwan Strait is exhibited. Through Wang Anyi’s reception of Chen Yingzhen, this essay gauges the outer limits that left-wing idealism can reach within the post-revolutionary context of mainland China. 

Key words: Chen Yingzhen; Wang Anyi; Left-wing idealism
