| 摘要: | 在二十一世紀這個網路發達快速的年代，在取得資訊上的方式，通常就是拿起手機，開啟瀏覽器並輸入關鍵字，就可以馬上得到上千萬筆的網路資料。在這便利之後的代價，就是在大量的資料出現時，有多少資料是正確的或是真實的呢？在真假難辨的資訊時代，要如何分辨真假就變成十分重要的問題!而在現今社會大眾對網路的依賴與習慣也日益加重，當然在學習新知或是溫故時，下意識也是會透過網路去進行學習，所以筆者認為應該利用這個時代的優勢，來在利用網路平台來進行寫作或是創作。
要進行創作當然需要有一個基礎的文本，來支撐貫穿整個創作，使創作更接近為生動，而筆者選擇使用《黃旺成先生日記》做為創作的基礎故事的取材材料，因為本次創作鎖定的區域是新竹地區，而黃旺成先生就是新竹土生土長新竹人，加上他在擔任教師的過程，又大量在新竹走動的記錄。所以他的日記擁有大量的新竹的歷史記憶。是本次創作中最重要的材料，藉由他的日記來帶出新竹地區的歷史及記憶，讓大眾可以透過這樣的方式，較為輕鬆地認識新竹這塊土地的歷史。
在這樣的社會氛圍下，筆者想將多元的史料進行組合，並且進行整合後加以創作。筆者主要的故事取材是材料有日記、史料、政府機關的公開資料與檔案等，故事主體是出自日記內容，再配合其餘史料與資料進行創作，此創作可能會跟傳統學術論文有很大的出入，但筆者認為史學應該要藉由多元的途徑進行書寫創作，讓史學有機會可以透過不同的形式，進入不同人的視角中，並使更多一般大眾重視歷史及理解歷史的重要性。透過此創作筆者還想傳達的是歷史應該是可以適應各種不同的載體，我們應該多加利用我們現代科技的優勢，來使更多不同類型的史料，有可以發揮的空間。
;In the 21st century, thanks to the rapid development of the Internet, the best way to obtain information is usually to pick up a mobile phone, open a browser, enter your keywords, and then view some of the tens of millions of Internet item matches that your search engine immediately amasses. The price of this convenience is the issue of how much of the data is correct or true when there is so much data available. In this age of instantaneous information access, when it is so often difficult to distinguish fact from fiction, sifting the truth out of all this information has become a very important issue! In today’s society, the public’s dependence on the Internet is also increasing. Additionally, when in pursuit of the latest information, or when in search of facts about the past, the subconscious will also be influenced by the Internet, so I believe that we should take advantage of this era and use the Internet for literary and creative purposes.
In order to create, of course, there needs to be a basic idea behind the creative project and strategies to bring the creation to life. I have chosen to use “Mr. Huang Wangcheng’s Diary” as my creative inspiration, because this work, set in the Hsinchu area of which Mr. Huang Wangcheng is a native, portrays the author’s career as a teacher, and records his numerous experiences of walking through the streets and avenues of Hsinchu City. Perhaps the most valuable aspect of this autobiographical book is the wealth of local history and personal experience that it contains, and therefore preserves for modern and future generations to discover. Following Mr. Huang’s example, I would like to combine material from multiple historical sources and weave them into a narrative of my own. Many of the accounts in Mr. Huang’s Diary are based on things he learnt from historical materials, public documents and the archives of government agencies, etc. The mainstay of Mr. Huang’s Diary combines personal experience with historical record, to create a work that is very different from standard academic literature. In keeping with this, I believe that good historiography should draw on information gained from multiple channels, so that it has the ability to appeal to different readers in different ways, thereby raising their awareness of history and its importance. In my project I also hope to argue that our understanding of history should be predicated on as many sources as possible, and in this respect we should make use of the modern technology at our disposal to enrich that understanding to the greatest degree possible. |
