"A general overview of the research on Taiwanese literature from the Cold War period demonstrates that particular emphasis is placed on the relationship between the 1950s and 60s US aid system of art and literature and literary production. This article proposes the late Cold War period”(1979-1991) as a method by which to examine the influence of the People’s Republic of China as a variable in the field of Taiwanese literature during the period following the establishment of US-China relations in 1979 up until the termination of the“system of national mobilization for the suppression of communist rebellion”in 1991.This article considers China’s research on modern Chinese literature and its concern for Taiwan and Hong Kong literature in the new era as having affected Taiwanese discourse on“new literary histories.”Owing to this, three literary periodicals established between 1982-1983 - Literary Taiwan, Wen-Ji Bimonthly, and Literary Information–embody three constructions of“literary history”: Literary Taiwan republished the Newsletter of Literary Friends by native Taiwanese authors and also translated early postwar historical materials of Japanese-language literature into Chinese; Wen-Ji Bimonthly devoted itself to introducing scar literature from China and to linking the genealogy of leftist literature from the period of Japanese rule; and Literary Information, established slightly later by the KMT’s cultural affairs department, embraced the literary experiences of the May Fourth period, the period of Japanese rule, and of overseas Chinese, to reconstruct“a new Republic of China literary history.”In other words, during the late Cold War period, Taiwanese nationalists and pro-unification leftists undoubtedly had opportunities to pursue“reconstruction,”but the national system of art and literature also made subsequent adjustments, carrying out a restructuring of“Chineseness.”This article updates the existing research on the Cold War period while also delineating the historical context of the phenomenon of the contemporary pro-unification left and other topics in Chinese literature." |
