阿里山文學書寫的歷史脈絡──從清領到日治

Historical Development of Alishan Literature Writing － From the Qing dynasty to the Japanese colonial period

「文學」是一種文化視域，溫柔照見歷史的記憶。阿里山文學有獨特的歷史及林業文化。清代以前由於無法進入山區，所以關於阿里山的文學史料記載模糊而貧乏。日治之後，臺灣總督府於 1896 年開始調查山區資源，阿里山森林因此打開在世人眼前。 由於阿里山開發與政治文化的關係密切，阿里山文學的研究，因此是人文與歷 史的對話，本文從清領到日治，透過阿里山文學書寫的歷史脈絡，追尋阿里山文學的意義與價值，阿里山的文學歷史仍繼續在延續。

“Literature” is a kind of culture, the memory of history. Alishan literature has unique historical and forestry cultures. Before the Qing dynasty, there were few and poor historical materials about Alishan literature because it was impossible for people to go into the mountains at that time. After the Japanese colonial period, Office of the Taiwan Governor-General began to explore mountain resources in 1896, and from then on, Alishan Forest was open to the world. The study of Alishan literature writing is viewed as a dialogue between history and humanity because there is a close relationship between the development of Alishan and political culture. In fact, the history of Alishan literature still continues. From the Qing dynasty to the Japanese colonial period, this article aims to purse the meaning and value of Alishan literature through the historical development of Alishan literature communication.
