本稿は、他者と自己、生と死、現世と来世という二項対立を重ねていく物語の構造を追跡し、浮舟物語の位相証明を試みた。なぜなら『源氏物語』の登場人物のなかで、唯一入水し、出家した人物でありながら、物語の登場から他者の視線と言葉で描写され、語られる女君としてのイメージに拘束されているからである。 そこで、先行研究での成果と限界を検討した。人物造形と物語の従属性と主体性に注目し、二重性と二項対立という物語構造との関連を明らかにし、他者と自己の図式の有効性を提示した。さらに、宇治川を渡る場面での散文表現と和歌表現の論理に注目し、匂宮と浮舟の矛盾、不幸な運命、仏教的無常さえ抱え込む人間存在への根源的不安を象徴する「うき舟」の象徴性を鮮明にした。 その延長線で、「もの思ふ」に注目し、他者の視線と自己凝視が交差しながら、男女関係、入水、出家へとつながる物語の構造を追跡した。その結果、他者の視線と言葉を媒介した「もの思ふ」が、視点人物の欲望を象徴し、葛藤を先鋭化していく構造を確認した。一方、自己凝視の「もの思ふ」が「うき舟」の象徴性を再度呼び寄せながら、入水と出家の論理を構成していく物語の構造を確認した。このように、二項対立の物語構造を追跡することで、最後のヒロイン、浮舟物語の位相を証明した本稿の意味は大きい。
Abstract
Ukihune, the final heroine of Genji Monogatari, is a character constrained by a substitute image of the other, making her position within the dynamics of subordination and subjectivity inherently ambiguous. However, Ukihune stands out as the only character in Genji Monogatari who both attempts suicide and later enters religious life. This unique trajectory establishes a narrative centered on Ukihune that progresses from romantic entanglement to suicide, and ultimately to spiritual renunciation. This study investigates how the monogatari structure develops through a series of binary oppositions — the other and the self, life and death, the secular and the spiritual — and seeks to reframe Ukihune’s story as a pivotal culmination within the work. Examining the strengths and limitations of previous literature, this study focuses on the subordination and subjectivity inside the narrative to highlight the structure of binary oppositions and verify the effectiveness of the self and other framework. Further insight is drawn from the analysis of the prose and Waka expressions in the scene where the characters cross the Uji (宇治) River. Here, the symbolic resonance of うき舟 is explored as it reflects not only the contradictions and tragic destiny between Niou no Miya and Ukihune, but also themes of impermanence and the existential anxiety of human life. Attention is also given to the usage of もの思ふ to trace the narrative structure of suicide and spiritual renunciation based on the love triangle portraying intersections of the gaze of the other and the act of self-reflection. This study shows that the use of もの思ふ, mediating the gaze of the other and the act of self-reflection, serves as a key narrative tool symbolizing the desire of each character and intensifying conflict. At the same time, when used introspectively, もの思ふ repeatedly evokes the symbolic meaning of うき舟, reinforcing the logic behind Ukihune's suicide and spiritual renunciation inside the monogatari. By analyzing the binary oppositions inside the monogatari's structure, this study repositions Ukihune’s narrative — marked uniquely by suicide and religious renunciation — as a significant culmination within Genji Monogatari, thereby revealing its deeper thematic and structural importance.
