对微观个体行为空间研究已经成为人文地理学空间研究的重要内容。本文以曹雪芹《红楼梦》中核心人物的活动信息和空间信息为资料依据,在国内首次从地理学微观个体行为的视角,在理论和方法论上对小说核心人物行为空间进行思考和研究,尝试将行为地理学研究方法引入文学文本研究领域。研究认为:从地理学视角对小说核心人物的空间信息、活动信息进行统计,以此作为人物微观个体行为空间信息要素是可行的;从地理学行为空间视角思考作者对小说文本内容设计意图,有利于对小说文本进行理性的解读与思考,避免文本被意识形态化。

Behavior space is the core object of behavioral geography. Study of microscopic space of individual's behaviors has become an important content for micro space research of human geography. Human spatial behavior purposes that any human spatial behavior is a conscious choice. The current behavioral geography methods of study behavior space mainly focus on the urban inner space, migration space, living space, community space, and consumer behavior. There is no interpretation and study of behavior of core characters in typically novels in terms of geography yet. Any narrative works are necessarily involves a certain period of time and a specific one (or several) specific space. However, things go different to another narrative which is fiction. The space in fiction is not the specific object or place on the basis of experience in our daily life but an abstract space, perceived space, illusion space in the text. It is the textual representation space based on the real behavior space. This paper is based on the characters and figures in The Story of the Stone, and tries to introduce the research methods of behavioral geography into the text field of literature research. It comes to conclusions as follows (1) it is feasible to analyze characters in terms of behavior space; (2) according to spatial analysis, space can be divided into several pieces for different characters, which provide a better way to understand the meaning of space in Da Guan-yuan; (3) depiction of behavior in the space node highlights characters more directly; (4) it helps to appreciate the theme of novel more rationally. However, there is still much to improve for the paper, for instance, no common spatial patterns for characters in one dimensional time are shown, neither are behavioral path in detail. At the same time, it is the way to the statistics that takes a leaf from human geography's book into literature without regarding to textual research. The existence of Da Guan-yuan should be regarded as a behavior space of characters in the text for figures are the subject of the Da Guan-yuan.The space in novel is a text representation of space which based on the real behavior space. The geographical study of text behavior from core characters in typically novels can be a brand new page of behavioral geography.
