博士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 建築與城鄉研究所 === 106 === The dissertation suggests closing in Chen-Yingzhen’s feelings, to feel the power of thoughts in Chen’s writings. The author found that past researchers never aware of the different versions of Chen’s writings, seldom notice the stereotyping of research method and way of reading, ultimately causes faults in different degree. How to understand reading faults? The author claimed that it appeared the struggle of different political ideology which reflects the specific structure of the Post-War history of Taiwan. Therefore, it is urgent to clear up our own condition of knowledge, as to find an effective way to understand Chen, afterwards make Chen’s thoughts interact in active and positive ways with our own condition of knowledge, History, and reality. The author’s idea is that we may have different inspiration exploring the Pulse of Chen’s literature and thoughts within Historical-Realistic-Feelings. Chen is always close to the reality, to think, feels distress, and tries to transcend: Distress and Transcending. For example, the distress appeared in the literatures before Chen was put into jail, mainly result from his feeling of the condition of ‘Ding-Ming(fatal)’ of ordinary people. Chen tried to put his thoughts on awakening in the literature but with no positive ending. If following up Chen’s footprint, we not only will found that it is impossible to imagine A Revolution, but will also found Chen’s political thinking by the distress raised from the impossibility of Revolution. After jail, social-political reality is not only unsolved, but even more critical, makes Chen’s continuing of feelings of distress. But literatures afterwards showed a stronger faith on ‘not giving up on “human”’, which based on the trust of human in any case. Because of some Transcending of his own crisis of thoughts, Chen changes his ways of writing to inspire readers on ‘Ding-Ming’. In summary, it is because Chen’s trying on inspiring readers, makes his literature a power to move; and it is the trying of reflecting multi-level reality, makes it hard to simplify Chen’s thoughts, and a necessity continuing exploration.
