From the narrative point of view, Turbid Waters Trilogy is highly regarded as autobiographical texts which reveal and record the colonial Other during the Japanese colonial period - Zhao-zheng Zhong's thought and mind. Based on this literature as a 'carrier,' this paper aims to analyze the spiritual contents, the Other's perception in the colonial society, the approach to self identity and the building process of self identity. It is believed that these writings would provide valuable historical perspectives for future generations to understand Taiwan's colonial history and its once lingering history complex. By and large, this trilogy reflects many aspects of the colonial society: the social hierarchy in colonial society, the impediments of Tennoization and the backlash against colonial society. It also records the growing enlightenment of 'the masters of the state' in terms of their spirits in thought and the enlightenment of sex. These enlightenments, as such, reflect the path of self identity of the protagonist. |
