本論文旨在探討都市人如何藉由日常生活的幻想與漫遊來扭轉現實，展現波特萊爾與班雅明論及的現代英雄精神，進而表達並張顯其個人的主體性。身為都市人，《馬可瓦多》、《艾蜜莉的異想世界》與《玻璃城市》的主人翁化身為漫遊者或女漫遊者，悠遊於城市空間，他們冒險、戲謔、追尋，打破實體空間的限制，並以行動來實現夢想。城市不再是僵硬堅固、由鋼筋水泥建構的實體，而是柔軟抽象、充滿想像與幻夢的空間。三部文本的主人翁根據他們個人的想像與生活經驗來認知他們各別的「軟城市」。對馬可瓦多而言，他居住的工業城市是個蘊藏自然的寶庫，等待慧眼獨具的他去發掘並實現他的田園幻夢；艾蜜莉把她居住的城市當成她的私人遊樂場，並以幫助他人、玩偵探遊戲取樂；至於奎恩，城市對他而言則是一座後現代迷宮，而他亟欲藉由扮演私家偵探的角色來追尋他早已永恆迷失的自我與主體性。悠遊於都市空間裡，他們帶著無限的幻想行走、觀察、探險，不斷試圖為自己的主體性發聲。

Charles Baudelaire and Walter Benjamin think that the modern heroism exists in those who exert their subjectivity and face bravely the fragmentary and ephemeral urban life.
This thesis attempts to focus on how urbanites exert their fantasy and flânerie to reverse the reality, define their subjectivities, and express the spirit of the modern heroism. The three protagonists of Marcovaldo, Le Fabuleux Destin d''Amelie Poulain, and City of Glass all set out to explore the city like flaneurs/flaneuse and fulfill their dreams by action. The urban space is no longer the "hard" entity constructed of concrete cement and buildings, but the "soft" abstraction full of fantasy and flexibility. Marcovaldo, Amelie, and Quinn individually perceive the image of their own soft city by their urban experiences and imagination. For Marcovaldo, the city is a treasure bank inside which he finds precious traces of Nature to pursue his idyllic dreams. For Amelie, the city is her private playground to help others and play a game of love. She turns into a female flaneuse who subverts the traditional concepts of the gendered politics of walking and looking in the city. For Quinn, the city is a postmodern labyrinth where he tries to find his own subjectivity and identity by pretending to be a detective. They all loiter, look, and explore with their boundless fantasy to enunciate their subjectivities through the urban space.
