舞台:韩国。时代:19世纪初。主人公是笔名为“塔山”的叔叔Chǒng雅庸和受洗名为“保罗”的韩国最受爱戴的基督教圣人Chǒng河相。这部真实的戏剧从塔桑开始,他因为对西方新学,特别是天主教的迷恋而被从高级官员的位置上流放,他对他的灵魂伴侣的佛教葬礼感到震惊或“敬畏”,他的灵魂伴侣是一个非传统的佛教徒,他被儒家教义所吸引。最后,塔桑回到了他的家乡,平静地死去,而哈桑则优雅地忍受了折磨,并为他的信仰被斩首。这些故事并不是唯一的,因为在这段时间里,许多贵族和妇女由于宗教不宽容和无情的政治迫害而成为殉道者。这种跨文化的相遇不仅是地方性的,也不仅具有历史意义,而且是与今天有关的普遍故事。这在当代作家韩武淑的历史小说《相遇》中表现得非常清楚。以真实的历史人物和事件为基础,遵循韩国单人歌剧(p’ansori)的传统模式及其发展形式(ch 'anggǔk), Hahn揭示了多元文化的融合,特别是体现在儒家和天主教中的东西方文化的融合,给韩国人带来了什么——男人和女人,成人和儿童,统治者和被统治者,知识分子和农民。哈恩的小说比任何学术著作都更生动地展现了19世纪初朝鲜经历的东西方相遇的宏大人类戏剧。在此过程中,她生动地描绘了跨文化交流的复杂性——好处与代价、快乐与痛苦、融合与冲突、拥抱与抵制、行动与反应、充实与挣扎。最重要的是,这种对19世纪早期朝鲜生活的描绘提醒我们,与普遍的看法相反,亚洲和世界上大多数其他地区一样,在很长很长一段时间里都是多元文化的。虽然关于全球化可能导致西方价值观与东方更传统文化之间冲突的文章很多,但现实情况是,某种形式的文化混合和冲突已经成为亚洲许多世纪以来生活的基本特征。佛教和儒教为这种根深蒂固、无处不在的多元文化现实提供了两个突出的例子。这两个生物伦理调查的跨区域传播(2007)4:163-167 DOI 10.1007/s11673-007-9061-6
The stage: Korea. The times: early nineteenth century. Main characters: the uncle Chǒng yag-yong, one of the greatest Korean Confucian scholars known by his pen name as Tasan, and the nephew Chǒng Ha-sang, one of the best loved Korean Christian saints known by his baptized name as Paul. The real-life drama starts with how Tasan, in exile from a top official position because of his fascination with new Western learning, and particularly with Catholicism, was shocked or “awestruck” by the Buddhist funeral ceremonies of his soulmate, an unconventional Buddhist who was attracted to Confucian teachings. In the end, Tasan returned to his home village and died peacefully, while Ha-sang gracefully endured torture and beheading for his faith. These stories are not unique as during this time, many noblemen and women became martyrs as a consequence of religious intolerance and ruthless political persecution. Such cross-cultural encounters are neither merely local nor only of historical interest, but are universal stories that remain relevant to the present day. This is very clearly portrayed in the historical novel Encounter by the eminent contemporary Korean writer Hahn Moo-Sook [1]. Based on real historical figures and events, and following the traditional mode of one-man Korean opera (p’ansori) and its developed form (ch’anggǔk), Hahn reveals what multicultural meeting, particularly the meeting of the Eastern and the Western cultures as incarnated in Confucianism and Catholicism, has brought to Koreans—to men and women, to adults and children, to the ruling and the ruled, to the intelligentsia and the peasantry. More vividly than any scholarly work could do, Hahn’s novel brings to life how the grand human drama of the meeting of the East and the West was experienced in early nineteenthcentury Korea. In doing so, she vividly portrays the complexities of cross cultural meeting—its benefits and costs, joys and pains, fusion and clash, embracing and resisting, acting and reacting, enrichment and struggle. Most importantly, this portrayal of life in early nineteenth-century Korea reminds us that Asia, contrary to popular belief, is, and has been, as with most other parts of the world, multicultural for a long, long time. And while much has been written about the potential for globalisation to lead to a clash between Western values and the more traditional cultures of the East, the reality is that some form of cultural mix and clash has been an essential feature of life in Asia for many centuries. Buddhism and Confucianism offer two salient examples of this deep-rooted and pervasive multicultural reality.
