1965年3月,当来自冲绳的第三海军陆战队远征军在岘港海滩登陆时,他们的指挥官意识到这条海岸线在10年前是法国远征军的所在地,因此将部队名称改为第三海军陆战队两栖部队。“两栖”这一术语恰当地总结了美国在越南的军事经验,在那里,许多部队发现自己沉浸在已经被几十年甚至几个世纪的军事斗争所定义的风景和空间中。美国人努力理解这些空间,而越南人则争先恐后地按照新的革命和民族主义路线重新定义这些空间。美国的军事建设和破坏行为已深深植根于充满军事冲突的城市和乡村生活的环境与空间历史之中。本次讲座借助作者最近出版的著作,探讨这场军事冲突如何重塑现代越南的景观和环境。
When the 3rd Marine Expeditionary Forces from Okinawa landed on a beach at Danang in March 1965, their commander, realizing that the same shoreline had been home to French Expeditionary Forces a decade earlier, changed his unit's name to the 3rd Marine Amphibious Forces. This term, "amphibious," aptly summarized the American military experience in Vietnam where so many troops found themselves immersed in landscapes and spaces already long-defined by decades if not centuries of military struggle. Americans struggled to make sense of these spaces while Vietnamese on all sides competed to redefine them along new revolutionary and nationalist lines. American military acts of construction and destruction became embedded in deeper environmental and spatial histories of urban and rural life where military conflict was a near-constant. Drawing on the author's recently published book, this talk explores how this military conflict has reshaped landscapes and environments in modern Vietnam.
