| Popis: | 95 This dissertation attempts to sort out and analyse the post-war modern poetry in Taiwan, founding a resourceful base as well as comprehensive outlook for the history of modern poetry polemics. The “modern poetry polemics” is a process where the different genres of modern poetry interact and negotiate. The knowledge to the genres of modern poetry is constituted in the field of modern poetry, and it is closely and strongly connected to the academic organisations of knowledge production, to the media, as well as to the political, economic, and social power structure. Through the review of “modern poetry polemics”, it enables us to witness the process of constitution in the modern poetry field. From the review, we see there are three interpretation communities that have profound influences toward the interpretations of modern poetry in Taiwan: classical lyrical interpretation, Modernist interpretation, and local Realist interpretation. These three different communities hold varied ideas toward literature, and criticise one another in the field of modern poetry, trying to strengthen itself and subvert the other two in the power structure. This dissertation will arrange the “modern poetry polemics” in historical order, interweaving the transformations of social environment and the similarities of the themes. Thus the history of the “modern poetry polemics” is divided into three phases. The first phase is “the Formation of the Field” (1956-1961), in which the Modernist poets respond the criticism outside the poetry field while they cohere their avant-garde stance through inner polemics. In this phase, the Modernist interpretation community stands out, and the classical lyrical interpretation community is under formation. The second phase is “the Cultural Transformation” (1971-1977). Due to the great dramatic changes of international environment, the Modernist interpretation community once loses its glamour, and the status of classical lyrical interpretation community is greatly hailed. In the meanwhile, the local Realist emerges. The third phase is “the Contention for the Power of Interpretation” (1981-1997). In this phase, the Modernist poets need not to defend for the legitimacy of modernist poetry. The contention for the power in interpreting modern poetry is the centre of polemics in this phase. The Modernist interpretation community regains its influence with the rise of Post-modernism as well as the recognitions from the academia. The local Realist interpretation community turns from social concerns to localization, reaching the highlight of its influence. And because of the impact of education in the past, the classical lyrical interpretation community has gradually combined with the popular culture. This dissertation reviews the history of “modern poetry polemics”, attempting to illustrate the historical singularities of varied stances, trying to understand the majority of people and their life experiences in different eras. This dissertation does not exclude any specific ideology, hoping to examine the history of modern poetry in broader ways. |
