The Colleciton of Taiwan Local Materials had become one of the most important collection for researchers of Taiwan Literature. The collection is not only a books collection of Taiwan Local Materials. When the editorial work progressing , Zhou Xien-wen’s cultural thought, political position and the historical viewpoint of Taiwan history (esp. Taiwan colonial history) had also been woven into the Collection of Taiwan Local Materials. In the cultural atmosphere during postwar period, to emphasize on the oppression of the colonizer and the revolt of the colonized is the mainstream thought of history hermeneutics in postwar Taiwan.It reflects the perspective of Zhou Xien-wen on Taiwan history. |
