In March 1947, Chien Go-chuan arrived in Taiwan for the job offer of the Dean’sposition at the College of Liberal Arts at Taiwan University, and he had lived in Taiwanfor seventeen years ever since then. This paper aims to reorganize and study Chien’sworks in order to investigate his theme of literary creation as well as the generality andspecialty of his works among China writers. Besides, the paper also attempts to discoverhow Chien’s Taiwan experience links to his life history by studying the way he describedthe whole story of his moving to and out of Taiwan and his living experience in Taiwan.The study shows that Chien had not only written travel notes about Taiwan’s folk andscenery, but also had archived his observations about people’s livelihood in Taiwan. Itis worth noting that since he was forced to stay in Taiwan because of the Chinese CivilWar, Chien’s creation about expressing his homesickness and concerning for the descentof Chinese culture had not been related to anti-communism at all. Instead, Chien hadshown passive resistance to official literary and art policy by implication. Finally, thepaper finds that after Chien left Taiwan, what he meant by “homeland” in his works wasno longer Mainland China exclusively, but included Taiwan as well. This change suggeststhat Chien’s acknowledgement of considering Taiwan as his second homeland wasgrowing, and shows that when the writer’s body moved around the world, the positionof Taiwan in his mind could be changed. |
