Being a nature-oriented literature researcher, I have believed several years that some fields are poised to be developed: first, this article clarifies the definition of nature-oriented writings; second, focusing on Taiwanese postwar novel and poetry, it explores the "nature consciousness" latent in novels; third, it investigates written significances pertaining to specific natural environments; fourth, it discusses nature consciousness in Native Taiwanese literature in Han. In sum, this can be considered a preliminary study for the fourth topic. This paper does not use literature as a basis of classification, nor does it specially focus on a single writer. Using the entire Native Taiwanese literature in Han, it analyzes a generally presented environmental ethics/ecological observation. Then, it deliberates on several issues: "Plain environmental ethics," "traditional ecological wisdom," and the "traditional ecological knowledge" stressed by aboriginal writers in their writings about nature. Besides visual imagination and the belief that everything has a spirit, is there an intelligible, rational wisdom regarding the environment? If there is, can local ecological wisdom converse with such global ecological wisdom based on contemporary scientific civilization and, without contradiction, provide fresh experience for "our common future"? |
