From Indigenization to the World
Taiwanese literature has witnessed an increased diversity in its research trends and methodologies since its institutionalization in the late 1990s. 1 The lifting of martial law in 1987 ushered in the conspicuous indigenization turn of literary studies in Taiwan from a Taiwan-centric perspective that is often critical of postwar Nationalist rule. Scholars, usually informed by originally Western postmodern or postcolonial theories introduced into …

This article takes the concept “folklore” and related terms such as…
