讲座系列（五）

耗时十年，张爱玲母亲黄逸梵晚年的钩沉始于她在新加坡入狱一夜的一篇新闻。她居于马来西亚槟城的忘年之交邢广生提供的五封书信是关键的钥匙，解锁她迁徙英国后，人生最后的光景。当中的线索更牵出黄逸梵新加坡英籍情人的身份，还原《小团圆》里母亲英国情人「劳以德」的原型，也解开她入狱的谜团。这一连串始于南洋的遗事，交织出黄逸梵浪迹上海、南洋与英国三地的足迹，一如《小团圆》的姑姑笑她为「流浪的犹太人——被罚永远流浪不得休息的神话人物。」张爱玲漂泊美国，窘迫孤老的晚年，是否也呼应着母女俩人在天涯的共同命运？

“Lin Yiliang” is one among a series of literary pseudonyms created by Stephen Soong (Song Qi, 1919-1996) after his relocation from Mainland to Hong Kong. They were symbolic embodiments of Soong's friendship and shared poetic ideals with Wu Xinghua (1921-1966), his lifelong confidant and fellow poet. The two men experienced the cataclysmic upheavals of mid-twentieth-century history, which ultimately severed their communication. Yet Soong's remembrance of this friendship remained deeply persistent. Through an analysis of these pseudonyms, and “Lin Yiliang” in particular, this study reveals how literary faith and the humanistic spirit attached to it can endure historical ruptures, circulating and evolving within new cultural contexts.
