| Abstract: | 因為醫學研究的發展，人們能從癌症中痊癒；在過去，癌症很難被治癒。然而，醫療科學的發展也帶來醫學倫理的問題。例如：當醫生對一位病人進行實驗性治療時，他必須在科學與人性間取得平衡；當他的病人面臨死亡的時候，他必須考量誰有權力決定病人的生命是否延續下去。本論文使用米歇爾・傅科 (Michel Foucault) 的權力、知識和抵抗理論，分析艾德森的《睿智》，進而探討前述的議題。本論文認為在本劇中，克里凱恩醫生 (Harvey Kelekian) 與波斯納醫生 (Jason Posner) 使用他們的醫療知識以及醫療凝視(the medical gaze)，對是主角，也是病患的薇薇安 (Vivian Bearing) 施展其權力。本論文並論述對薇薇安進行實驗性治療時，他們罔顧人性，只在乎他們的研究結果。本論文也從傅柯抵抗理論的觀點說明，薇薇安最終抵抗她醫生們的不人道治療，並且奪回自己的生命自主權。
關鍵字：瑪格麗特・艾德森、《睿智》、米歇爾・傅柯、權力、知識、醫療凝視、抵抗
With the progress of medical research, people can recover from illness, such as cancer, which was not expected to be cured in the past. However, the growth of medical science also raises the issues of medical ethics. For instance, when a doctor prescribes an experimental treatment for a patient, he needs to reach a balance between science and humanity; he should consider who has autonomy over the patient’s life when the patient is dying. This thesis discusses the aforementioned issues by analyzing W;t, a play by Margaret Edson, using Michel Foucault’s theory of power, knowledge and resistance. This thesis argues that in the play, Dr. Harvey Kelekian and Dr. Jason Posner, use their medical knowledge and medical gaze to exercise power over the patient-protagonist Vivian Bearing, and when they prescribe an experimental treatment for her, they care only about their research outcome at the expense of humanity. This thesis also contends that from the perspective of Foucault’s theory of resistance, Vivian finally resists her doctors’ inhumane treatment to regain autonomy over her own life.
