本研究探討殖民時期台南及台北兩個台灣最主要城市的空間轉化過程與意涵。近來，部分建築與都市研究對於殖民體制下的空間變化總是簡化地將之定論為一個「刮去重寫」(palimpsest)且缺乏「主體參與」(nonsubjective)的過程。有別於前述論點，本論文尋求在「現代性」(modernity)與「殖民性」(coloniality)交會下，討論空間與地方變動的其他可能性。研究主要回應以下的問題：日本殖民時期，台南與台北都市空間在「殖民主義」與「現代化」的交互影響下，所呈顯的的景象為何？殖民治理下，都市空間變化的真切意涵為何？在建構「殖民現代性」(colonial modernity)的過程中，建築與都市發展真否僅是被定論為一個缺乏主體性參與的過程？

基於前述，論文探究下列關係：空間與地方，身體與空間，文本與空間。內容主要區分為三部分：第一部份說明研究目的與架構；第二部分為理論與文獻回顧。研究主要援引Henri Lefebvre （昂希．拉斐伏爾）及Edward Soja（愛德華．索雅）的空間理論。此外，討論現代性與殖民主義的議題，以及身體在建築與都市空間移動的概念。最後，檢視空間記憶、認同及歸屬等概念；第三部分討論研究對象台南及台北的空間變化。首先，從「空間感知」的觀點探討台南與台北在殖民前的空間實踐。其次，從「空間認知」的角度討論兩個都市在殖民時期的空間如何被再現。最後，在「真實與想像空間」的觀點下，以文學與圖像作為文本，藉由移動與觀看的概念來觀照殖民者與被殖民者的空間關係。

本研究無意提出決斷式的答案，而是冀望建立一個開放的動態分析架構，使得殖民時期台灣都市空間變遷的新意涵得以出現，期以作為引發新討論的媒介。更重要地，對於曾為殖民地的人民而言，有關空間轉化議題中殖民性與現代性的論辯，將會是一個持續不斷進行的空間書寫過程。

This thesis focuses on the spatial transformation of two main cities, Tainan and Taipei, in colonial Taiwan. Some scholars of architecture and urban planning have used an extremely simplified perspective to examine and conclude upon the spatial modernization under colonial rule – a palimpsest process without subjectivity. Challenging this viewpoint, this thesis seeks to explore new possibilities of discussing space and place whenever topics related to colonialism and modernization are encountered. It aims to answer the following questions: What did the urban images really demonstrate under the interaction of coloniality and modernity in Taiwan? What are the exact meanings of the transformation of the urban context under colonial rules? Were architecture and urbanism under Japanese rule only a project of building colonial modernity without subjectivity?

To respond to the aforementioned questions, this thesis draws attention to the relationships of the following terms: space and place, body and space, text and space. It is structured in three main parts: the first part, the introduction, summarizes the aims and framework of the study. The second part contains the spatial theories and literature review of this research topic. It mainly takes the spatial ideas of Henri Lefebvre and Edward Soja, then deals with the topics of modernity and colonialism. This part is designed to emphasize these two effects of urban space and then focuses on envisioning modernity and colonialism in Japan and Taiwan. This is followed by a discussion of the concepts of body in architectural and urban space; in addition, it examines the subject in the context of the issues of memory, identity and belonging. The third part discusses the specific cities, Tainan and Taipei, as a case study. First, it focuses mainly on the transformation of urban contexts through different periods: (1) the “space-perceived” period: the spatial practice of Tainan and Taipei; and (2) the “space-conceived” period: representations of Tainan and Taipei. The discussion then turns to “real–and-imagined” space, dealing with the relationship between the colonizer and the colonized from the perspectives of walking and viewing.

This thesis concludes not with a clear-cut answer but a dynamic frame that can be used to explore new meanings of spatial transformation in colonial Taiwan and could become a catalyst to encourage other discussions in the future. More importantly, the discussion of spatial transformation related to coloniality and modernity is an ongoing spatial writing for those people in once-colonized countries.
