摘要：張愛玲筆下的戰爭經驗和戰爭意象一直受到學者關注。在張愛玲筆下，淪陷中的香港雖為非常時期，但仍有不變的人性和日常。戰時香港，白日時時有飛機轟炸，晚上的醫院裏有病人哀鳴，還有難堪的寂靜，在在都是深入骨髓的生命記憶。張愛玲對二戰時期香港聲音景觀的書寫，不但呈現了她對香港這個南方小城的觀感，更洩露了作者或人物的內心真實。是次講座將首先回顧張愛玲對二戰時期的香港聲音景觀的描述，集中分析作者如何通過聽覺重構其戰爭經驗，並進一步探討其中所隱含的歷史記憶、身分認同、心理創傷等多方面的問題。

Eileen Chang's war experience and war images have always attracted the attention of scholars. In the works of Chang, although wartime Hong Kong is an exceptional period, human nature in everyday life remains unchanged. In wartime Hong Kong, there are aircrafts bombing during the day, patients crying in the hospital at night, and the embarrassing silence. They are all unforgettable life memories. Chang's soundscape writing of Hong Kong during World War II not only presents her perception of this small southern city, but also reveals the inner reality of the writer or characters. This talk first reviews Chang's description of Hong Kong soundscape during World War II, focusing on how the writer reconstructs her war experience through acoustics. It then further discusses Chang's historical memory, identity, and psychological trauma.
