Modern Europe's Epic Journey of Self-Discovery: The Representation of Chinese Cultural Space in The Travel Diary of a Philosopher by Hermann Keyserling

摘要

摘要: 德国哲学家凯泽林1919年出版的《一个哲学家的旅行日记》是一部环球旅行报道,其中记录了他于1912年游历中国的所观所感。本文通过结合文历史语境和思想史背景分析该文本的叙事模式和修辞策略,探讨文本中对异域文化空间的再现在陷入分裂状态的现代个人的主体性构建中起到何种作用,而文本建构中国文化的话语策略反映了欧洲形而上学危机的何种文化症候,进而追问其中国文化空间书写在德国民族国家意识形成和欧洲现代性展开中扮演的角色。文本暗含的成长小说叙事模式,反映了德国人的现代民族国家想象、国族身份认同追寻和重建欧洲精神的抱负。另外,文本构建出一个静态的、本质主义化、去历史化、去政治化的中国文化空间。这种他者化话语把中国与西方的关系放置在传统/现代二元对立的框架之内,一方面致使西方对阐释现代性的话语权在世界文化版图的新秩序上得到确立,另一方面西式现代化道路的前景也因此得以自我确认。凯泽林本来带着对现代文明的批判远走他乡,此时环绕地球一周又回到原点,欧洲的出路还是在现代化进程。然而,西方知识分子在构建中国文化时的“欧洲中心主义”立场并不意味着中国文化自始至终处于从属的、被动的位置,中西文化的双向互动正好说明现代性的生成并非先进的欧洲在带动全球“落后文明”,而是一个中西文化同步互动的动态过程。

Abstract: The Travel Diary of a Philosopher(1919) by the German philosopher Hermann Keyserling is a report of his travel around the world, which records what he saw and felt when he traveled to China in 1912. This paper analyzes the narrative mode and rhetorical strategy of the text considering the political and historical context to explore the role of its representation of Chinese culture in the reconstruction of the broken subjectivity of modern individuals. In the text, the discourse strategy of constructing Chinese culture reflects the cultural symptoms of European metaphysical crisis and implies the role of the representation of Chinese culture in the construction of German national consciousness and the development of European modernity. The narrative mode of the Bildungsroman in the text demonstrates Keyserling's search for German national identity and the European spiritual unity. The Chinese cultural space constructed in the text is static, essentialist, de-historical, and de-politicized. In this other-oriented discourse, the relationship between China and the West is placed within the framework of the “traditional/modern” binary opposition. As a result, the domination of Western voice in the interpretation of modernity as well as the prospect of the Westernstyle modernization have been confirmed in the new order of the world's cultural territory. By adopting this mindset, the imagination of the unity of Western civilization and the vision of modernization project are established. The purpose of Keyserling's critique of modern civilization was to find a way out for the Western culture in crisis.But when he circled the earth and finally returned to the original point, he conceded that the way out for Europe is still modernization. However, the “Eurocentric” position of Western intellectuals in their representation of Chinese culture by no means indicates that Chinese culture is always in a subordinate and passive position. Instead, the bidirectional interaction of Chinese and Western cultures suggests that global modernity is not merely driven by “advanced” Europe alone. Modernity is a dynamic process that is made possible by the simultaneous interaction of Chinese and Western cultures.
