Self-introduction
What is it about the text that moves people's hearts and minds beyond time and space? What methods are used to create such texts, and in what context and time period? Through the activities of modern Japanese writers and Taiwanese writers and haiku poets who were forced to learn Japanese in Taiwan during the Japanese colonial period, I 'm considering the possibilities and impossibilities of language art.
