张爱玲以都市男女的悲欢离合为主要创作题材，然而，其小说空间却大多围绕着败落 大家庭的闺阁日常而展开，她偏好书写古旧的公馆、阴暗的楼道、荒凉的院落，弥漫着幽冷苍凉的气氛，在现代摩登的都市背景下建构出新上海与旧中国之间参差对照的重叠影像。张爱玲不同寻常的空间取向不仅显示出她对苍凉美学的偏爱，也揭示了市民日常叙事向革命历史叙事的反叛，若将其微观具体的空间书写向性别、城市、国族等宏观抽象的议题敞开，则更具丰富的研究价值。 本文聚焦于张爱玲小说中的空间创作实践，分别以“空间与性别”，“空间、阶级与 种族”，“空间与地方”，和“空间的比较研究”四个方面作为论述的关键切入点，在文 本与理论的纵横中展开深入讨论，进而透过空间的折射，对性别与权力、阶级与消费、种族与城市、恋物与恋地、记忆与地方等研究锚点之间的复杂关联进行分析，从文学谱系的视域中对张爱玲的空间诗学做出思考与回应。 Eileen Chang's literary works often center on the emotional lives and relationships of urban men and women. Yet, the settings in her novels frequently depict the daily lives within decaying aristocratic families. She has a particular affinity for describing old mansions, shadowy corridors, and desolate courtyards, creating a pervasive atmosphere of coldness and desolation. Within the context of modern and cosmopolitan urban environments, she juxtaposes the imagery of new Shanghai with that of old China, crafting a layered and contrasting narrative. Eileen Chang's unique approach to spatial representation not only underscores her preference for a melancholic aesthetic but also subverts the dominant revolutionary historical narratives by highlighting the everyday stories of urban residents. By extending her detailed, micro-level spatial depictions to encompass broader and more abstract themes such as gender, urban life, and national identity, her work gains additional depth and research value. This paper explores the spatial narrative techniques in Eileen Chang's novels, using four critical perspectives: "Space and Gender," "Space, Class, and Race," "Space and Place," and "Comparative Studies of Space." Through an in-depth analysis of texts and theories, this study examines the intricate interconnections among themes such as gender and power, class and consumerism, race and urban spaces, fetishism and place, memory and locale. The aim is to reflect on and respond to Eileen Chang's spatial poetics from the standpoint of literary lineage.
