本論文主要是在探討薩曼、魯西迪在東，西小說中如何運用以第三空間為策略在二元對立的世界中找到出口。由於魯西迪漂泊離散的身分，他選擇將自己置於曖昧矛盾的第三空間中以避免被挾制於特定論述或意識形態中。因此魯西迪藉由能夠模糊政治、語言、以及文學方面界線的第三空間為策略，來顯示他如何以曖昧矛盾的處世態度在二元對立的世界中取得自身的主導權。
本論文將會分為三個部分(包括漂泊離散空間、語言第三空間、文學第三空間)來探討魯西迪如何在此小說中使用三種不同的第三空間，以達到抵抗文化身分、標準英語、以及文學經典等霸權。首先，論文第二章最主要在介紹漂泊離散的空間；在此空間中，漂泊離散者能夠依舊保有他們曖昧矛盾的獨立身分並免於被收編或同化於特定的身分中，並且藉此擁有能夠重新定義自己身份的權利與自由。第二，在第三章中魯西迪利用語言中第三空間的觀點來質疑傳統文化翻譯以及標準英語的純正性，為長久以來被曲解、壓抑的東方文化取得發聲的機會；讀者也可藉由文本中語言的挪用來了解認識異文化。最後，於第四章中，我將藉由巴赫汀所闡述存於小說中的新空間和後設小說的戲謔諧擬來分析魯西迪如何創造一個文學第三空間，揭櫫寫作人為的本質；並將社會時事與文學批判結合於小說文類中。總結來說，此三種不同的第三空間不僅反應出魯西迪拒絕選擇而將自身置於矛盾曖昧中的空間中，同時也為二元對立的世界中注入新動力。 / The aim of the thesis is to scrutinize how Salman Rushdie finds an outlet in the dichotomous world by means of the third space in East, West. Due to his diasporic identity, Rushdie decides to stay in an ambivalent space, avoiding being confined in specific ideology or discourse. As a result, using the strategy of the third space, which blurs political, linguistic, and literary boundaries, Rushdie shows how he earns agency in the dichotomous world.
This thesis deals with three kinds of third space: diaspora space, linguistic space, and literary space. Each chapter unfolds how Rushdie uses the strategy of the third space to resist hegemonic discourse on human identity, the Standard English, and literary canons. Chapter II begins with an introduction of the diaspora space, by which diasporans are able to maintain their unique identities without being co-opted into a specific subject position. In Chapter III, both traditional cultural translation and the Standard English are questioned in terms of the linguistic third space. By means of the linguistic space, Rushdie challenges the monolithic cultural representation and pureness of the Standard English. The space also helps the distorted and misrecognized eastern culture articulate by appropriation of English. In Chapter IV, I will take metafictional parody and Bakhtin’s new zone of the novel to analyze how Rushdie creates a literary third space to lay bare the fabricated nature of writing and at the same time to combine social and literary critiques within the novel. To sum up, the three types of the third space in East, West not only reflect Rushdie’s refusal to taking sides but also bring dynamics to the dichotomous world.
