內容簡介

  這一專輯,譯介本叢刊的創辦者和主要編者杜國清一生的業績。在推展台灣文學上的重要角色之外,杜國清是一位著名的詩人和研究對象,也是台灣六○年代開始推動現代詩運動的重要詩人之一。然而,關於他的作品,英語讀者知道的很少,可惜這是由於歷史和審美趣味的原因。因此這一專輯,我們的用意在於提供杜國清作品的代表作以及一些研究論文的英文翻譯。如此,我們希望華文以外的讀者能夠有機會欣賞他的創作成就,以及瞭解他對華文現代詩發展的貢獻。

  This very special issue of Taiwan Literature: English Translation Series is dedicated to the life work of the journal's founder and main editor, Tu Kuo-ch'ing. Apart from his important role in the promotion of Taiwan literature, Professor Tu is a celebrated and much-studied poet who has been one of the most significant poets in the Modernist poetry movement in Taiwan since the 1960s. However, very little of his work is available to English language readers. This is unfortunate for both historic and aesthetic reasons. Therefore, it is our intention with this special issue to provide a representative selection of Tu's poetic oeuvre, as well as a number of studies of his verse in English translation. Our hope is that in this way readers outside of the Chinese-speaking world will be afforded the opportunity both to enjoy Tu's outstanding accomplishment as a poet and to gain an understanding of his contribution to the development of Modernist verse in the Chinese language.

杜國清


  本叢刊自1996年創刊以來,持續至今已超過22年,共出版44集。作爲上世紀六○年代台灣《現代文學》作家群中的一員,我的作品與台灣文學這半世紀以來的發展,息息相關,而《叢刊》在最近幾集,譯介《現代文學》作家王文興、王禎和、白先勇之後,出版我的作品專輯,可以説是順理成章的事。同時,作爲詩人學者,我的詩路歷程和學術生涯長達四十多年,在新詩創作和詩論研究上所展現的成果,尤其是在中國古典詩與現代詩的交會點上,以及對中西傳統詩觀有所融匯貫通之處,回顧之餘,我相信,譯介我以中文創作的作品給一般英語讀者,似乎也該是時候了。

  這一專輯的執行,非常感謝本叢刊的英文編輯羅德仁教授的協助和合作。我特地請他翻譯我早期的長詩和最近的一些散文評論。這一專輯的導言由他撰寫,對我的作品提出了相當獨到的見解。本來的計畫,希望盡量多選作品和論文,較全面地呈現我的代表作,結果數量上遠超過本刊通常的篇幅,不得不割愛。受到篇幅的限制,這一專輯只能發表一部分,而將其餘的另外出版一卷單行本。如此,希望選譯的作品,分成兩卷,能夠包含重要的詩作和評論,而無遺憾地展示出關於我的作品的實質内涵和多樣風格,讓讀者有一個較爲完整的瞭解。

  詩作之外,對於未能收入這一專輯的作者和譯者,包括以下三篇:鄭恆雄的〈杜國清詩論的發展及詩作的顯現〉(作者本人翻譯)、朱天的〈以象示徵,與美同遊:杜國清象徵詩論研究〉(譯者施開揚Brian Skerratt)、王小平的〈萬法交徹.眾緣彙聚:杜國清的詩藝成就與研究述評〉(譯者羅德仁)。對以上三位作者和譯者,在此深表抱歉,但是無損於他們的學術見解、以及為翻譯所付出的功勞和貢獻,我會在另卷出版時再致謝意,並請涵諒。

  我們非常感謝台灣研究中心,提供編輯作業上的協助,尤其是助理白安吉和蔡瑞齡的努力和辛勞。此外,臺大出版中心嚴嘉雲編輯的協力合作,英文編輯Fred Edwards的仔細校訂,以及論文作者的學術貢獻、譯者的配合及時完成任務,使這一專輯能夠順利出版,功不可沒,在在都是使我非常感謝的。

Foreword

Foreword to the Special Issue on Tu Kuo-ch’ing

by Kuo-ch’ing Tu


  T his journal launched its publication in 1996, and has been in publication for twenty-two years, with forty-four issues published to date. Associated with the writers of the Modern Literature group of the 1960s in Taiwan, my works have been closely related to the development of Taiwan literature for the past half century. Since this journal has recently published several issues on the Modern Literature writers, such as Wang Wen-hsing, Wang Chen-ho, and Pai Hsien-yung, it is logical (a matter of course?) to have this special issue on my works. At the same time, my career as a poet and scholar for more than forty years, my achievements in creative writing and studies of poetic theory, especially at the intersection of Chinese classical poetry and modern poetry, with a synthesis of poetic views East and West, have convinced me in retrospect that the time seems to have come to introduce my works written in Chinese to English readers in general.

  For implementation of this special issue, I am very thankful to the co-editor of the journal, Professor Terence Russell, for his assistance and cooperation, especially in response to my request that he translate some of my long poems written in my early period as well as several recent essays. The introduction to this special issue is written by him, and his comments contain many insightful observations. The original plan was to select as many poems and studies as possible to introduce an all-round presentation of my works, but it turned out that this would take more than the normal space allowed for the journal so the number of selections had to be reduced. Limited by the space allowed, this issue can only present some of the selections, and leave the others to be included in a separate supplementary collection to be published shortly afterward. It is my hope that the pieces selected in the two volumes will include most of my important poems and studies and will satisfactorily represent the substance and diverse styles of my work so the reader will have a more well-rounded understanding.

  The following three of the selected articles are not included in this issue:

  • “The Development of Tu Kuo-ch’ing’s Poetic Theories and Their Poetic Realizations” by Jeng Hengsyung, translated by the author;

  • “Image as a Symbol, Playing with Beauty: Tu Kuoch’ing’s Writings on Symbolism” by Chu Tien, translated by Brian Skerratt;

  • “All Dharmas Interpenetrating as All Karmas Converged: An annotated bibliography of Tu Kuo-ch’ing’s Poetic Works” by Wang Xiaoping, translated by Terence Russell.

  I am deeply obliged to the authors and translators, and the delay in publication will unlikely do any harm to their hard work, scholarship and contribution to translation, which I will amply acknowledge and express my sincere apologies when the second collection is published. I am very thankful to the editorial assistance provided by the UCSB Center for Taiwan Studies, especially the hard work and dedication of Angela Borda and Raelynn Moy. The collaboration of editor Yan Chia-yun at National Taiwan University Press, as well as our English copy editor Fred Edwards’ meticulous work, the scholarly contributions of the authors and timely cooperation from the translators are all essential components that have made the publication of this special issue possible. I am deeply indebted to their valuable contributions to the field and their gracious kindness to me.
