中文摘要

本文以華語系酷兒研究中強調的邊緣歷史視角重新檢視美援文化敘事中,美國文化冷戰於臺灣藝術發展中所扮演的角色。本文爬梳冷戰時期美國官方資助的美國現代舞蹈團初次訪臺,其「冷清」歷史與觀眾「冷情」反應,透過分析美國官方檔案、報導、評論及巡演舞蹈作品,梳理美方決策過程、展演內容與臺灣觀眾詮釋的視角,並從冷戰人文主義概念理解臺灣舞蹈界冷清反應的原因。本文強調臺灣戰後的舞蹈現代化,並非僅是「美援文化」敘事下的產物,也可能是戰後臺灣知識分子與藝術家透過藝術追尋普世價值,爭取言論自由的選擇。

英文摘要

Drawing on a peripheral history perspective inspired by Sinophone queer studies, this essay examines the impact of the United States Cold War policy of cultural diplomacy, specifically the Cultural Presentations Program, in postwar Taiwan. I argue that the indifference to the state-sponsored touring concert of American modern dance company's in Taiwan in 1962 demonstrates the complexity of the role of US foreign policy, often referred to as cultural imperialism. I analyze the official documents, news reports, dance reviews, and the toured dance works to unpack the negotiations between the agencies and the dance artists, as well as the receptions of the Taiwanese. I use the idea of "Cold War humanism" to explain that the Taiwanese intellectuals and artists' quest for humanist values, which led to a "cold/cheerless" aftermath, represents their struggles against the ruling party's control over artistic freedom.
