Abstract:	本研究在探討亞斯伯格孩子的內在世界，透過分析Jennifer Roy所著的Mindblind，藉由德希達的延異概念，更了解亞斯伯格孩子所面臨的社會挑戰和衝突。亞斯伯格的孩子因其社交及溝通上的困難，往往被貼上負面的標籤，被歸為異類，而透過本書主角第一人稱自述式的語言，亞斯孩子的孤獨與被認同感的需求，一一浮現。面對家中患有亞斯的孩子，父母的教養更顯重要，然而卻也增加夫妻教養間的摩擦，甚至如書中主角的父親，因無法接受孩子的特殊性，最後夫妻離異，亞斯家庭所面對的問題，在本書中具體呈現。近年來，兒童文學的內涵及趨勢，愈來愈具包容性及多元化，而具特殊需求的孩子也逐步受到該領域的重視，透過從小培養孩子對於個體差異的體察與尊重，能夠建構一個更有愛的社會。因國內特教認知推展有方，大眾對於不同需求的個體均能抱以同理心，而透過文學作品的推廣，能夠傳達更明確的社會及教育概念，本研究期望透過該文學作品的探討，發掘主角改變環境的力量，也希望透過文學作品的推廣，強化社會正向包容的能量。 The inner world of people with Asperger’s Syndrome is regarded as obscure and incomprehensible by the general public. In her book, Mindblind, Jennifer Roy reveals this hardly understood world through the voice of a fourteen-year-old boy, Nathaniel, who describes how Asperger’s Syndrome has led him to be considered different from others and how and to what extent it has impacted his life and others’ with surprises and challenges. This thesis seeks to understand how Nathaniel is situated and stigmatized in society in terms of his differences. Derrida’s “différance” is used to explain how individuals with special needs such as ASD are regarded as “abnormal” in relation to those “normal” ones and whether these labels or categories can represent who these individuals truly are. Although Nathaniel seems to be content with his status quo, it is argued that he aspires to be identified and included by others.Along with the analysis of domestic issues among Nathaniel and his family members, this thesis suggests that being a teenager also puts trouble and confusion on his mind, such as looking for love and friendship, as much as how it affects ordinary teenagers. The process of struggling and dealing with these issues shows how he grows up by learning social skills, managing social rules, and accommodating himself to social values of the mainstream. On the one hand, Nathaniel’s academic achievements and circle of friends show his agency and efforts in social participation; on the other hand, it also implies his compromise to the societal norms. While the transformation of Nathaniel can be identified in the story, his father’s resistant attitude to understanding his son’s situation continues to upset Nathaniel. Focusing on Nathanial’s interaction with others, the thesis examines how he has made a difference to other people’s lives, which is later reciprocated in the development of his own well-being.
