文以载吾道:唐文标的“寻根”与伦理重建

本文通过梳理唐文标在20世纪60至80年代的思想路径,试图揭开唐文标在两岸文学、文化史上被遮蔽的先锋作用。从1960年代的“寻根”“回归现实”,到1970年代的“文以载道”“重建桃花源”,再到1980年代的“集体救赎”“伦理重建”,唐文标始终是台湾文学与现代文化敏锐的研究者和坚定的实践者。通过重新认识唐文标,我们得以重估保钓的精神遗产,重新认识台湾现代文学和文化史中走过的歧路和迄今悬而未决的问题。唐文标晚年从台湾民变史和中国戏剧史中看到建立适应时代的伦理秩序和文化制度的重要性和迫切性,实际是尝试从中华文明史的角度提出人的困境的解方。他一生的创作,正是实践自己“道”的写照。

Tang Wenbiao's“Root-seeking”and Ethical Reconstruction

This paper attempts to uncover the hidden vanguard role of Tang Wenbiao in the literary and cultural history of both sides of the Taiwan Straits by combing through his ideological path from the 1960s to the 1980s.From “ Root-seeking”and “ Returning to Reality”in the 1960s to “ Literature Carrying Tao”and “ Rebuilding Peach Blossom Land”in the 1970s,and then to“Collective Salvation”and“Ethical Reconstruction”in the 1980s,Tang Wenbiao has always been the most keen researcher and determined practitioner of Taiwan literature and modern culture.By re-understanding Tang Wenbiao and re-reading his articles,we can re-evaluate the spiritual heritage of the“Protect Diaoyu Islands Movement”and understand again Taiwan contemporary literature and the wrong path in its cultural history,and the problems that have remained unresolved so far.In his later years,Tang Wenbiao saw the importance and urgency of establishing an ethical order and cultural system to adapt the times from the history of peasant uprisings and the history of folk drama.In fact,he tried to propose a solution to the human dilemma from the perspective of the history of Chinese civilization.His life-long creation is a portrayal of practicing his own“Tao”.
