This paper investigates Nanpo Kiko, written by a Japanese settler Masugi Shizue during the Japanese occupation of Taiwan, from a colonist's perspective on the connotation and meaning of a colony. It is intended to analyze the national identity from the writings at the time. Under the Kominka Movement, Masugi Shizue wrote from a Japanese view point about the distortion of language and cultural values, the realities of actual life and the corresponding attitudes of Taiwanese. It focused in particular on the ruling Japanese identification with blood ties and nationalism and depicted the political economy, life and culture of Taiwan under Japanese rule. In addition, this study orients towards understanding the images of home, country and homesickness of Japanese settlers in the face of Taiwan. |
