中文摘要 | 本文試從三個面向分析德里洛的《大都會》。首先,借重巴赫汀「時空型」及「複調小說」理論,分析德里洛對於時空領域的配置安排,如何呈現出後現代都會地區交通壅塞與虛擬網路暢通的不對稱對比。透過文本分析作者如何將車內、外兩個時空領域對比並置,呈現後現代感官認知失衡、虛實莫辨、且朝商品交換傾斜的「社會失調」問題。第二,由於多數人習慣從媒體獲得資訊,他們對於全球化的理解多半來自於電視(或電腦)影像再現與合成。針對小說中所描寫之現象,本文分析作者如何詮釋全球化時代世界逐漸虛擬失真的不對稱現象。第三,雖然全球化經常被理解為經濟、政治去疆域化;然而從文化角度切入,全球化與其說是真實世界的疆域重劃,不如說是從認知角度抽象重塑虛擬的世界觀。所謂的全球化,較偏向一種局部、抽象的認知重塑,而非實質的疆界消融。由於媒體報導,世界彷彿近在咫尺,這些似真實幻的螢幕影像襲奪了實體的真實性 ,「表象」取代了「實體」,成為虛假的存在。在擬仿的表象中,感官受到操作,本質消失,虛擬世界取而代之,彷彿比真實還要真實。本文將藉由閱讀《大都會》所描繪的全球化現象,交叉印證在網路社會崛起之全球化世界中,虛擬侵蝕真實,表象取代本質的感官現象。 |
英文摘要 | Contradicting the prospect promised by the title Cosmopolis, Don Delillo intentionally disappoints the readers’ expectation with a plain, if not dull, characterization and portrayal of the post-capitalist global era. A “cosmopolis” is supposed to be, as Bill Gates has described, a domain of “friction-free capitalism,” in which the traditional boundaries are de-territorialized in order to re-territorialize, the communication and transportation is accelerated without obstacle, and the hybridity of tolerance and harmony is substituted for the conflicts and discrimination of parochialism. In the novel, however, the readers encounter an insomniac billionaire asset manager, Eric Packer, besieged in his own limousine. Though equipped with all the sophisticated devices to simultaneously contact the world, the limo alienates Packer from everything outside the car mentally and physically. The car thus becomes a symbol of various imbalanced polarities: a restless vehicle clogged in the inertial traffic, a traditional carriage on road with postmodern devices in the wireless Internet, a hybrid of local existence and global interaction, and an interface between mental and physical and between virtual and real. The idea of space and time is crucial here, but the conventional spatiotemporal notion is disrupted and reconstituted. The anti-globalization protest, the funeral procession, and even Packer’s stop for meals and love-makings are all the crystallization of such disruption and reconstitution. “Destroy the past, make the future” becomes a critical urge, and it echoes Delillo’s pessimistically creative observation of the globalization phenomena in the U.S. This paper will concentrate upon multiple imbalanced binary opposition in Cosmopolis. Besides the close analysis of Delillo’s parallel but contradictory narrative to interpret his reservation and anxiety about globalization, the author’s portrayal of the contradictory “cosmopolis” will also be elaborated contrapuntally with the sociological theory by Negri and Hardt in Empire. The immaterial labor and symbolic exchange circulated in the global network (physical or virtual), the reification of the humanity by the utilitarian capitalism aggravated by global capitalism, and the alienation among people in this shrinking world of no distance will be juxtaposed with the study of the theory. |
