When he was 14 years old, Ou started writing. After trying different types of literature, Ou Tan-Sheng decided to establish novel as his main form of creative writing. In Fuzhou Period, the novelist was influenced by the social environment of KMT Ruling Area and began to establish the concept of the Realism in his works. As a result, the vivid depiction of average persons and the unique style of sarcasm were throughout this period, and all these characteristics were also the main branch of novel creation in the first few years after he settled in Taiwan. In 1947, Ou instantly finished several novels reflecting the social reality of Taiwan, and these works was called “the good samples of Taiwan Literature” by Yang Kui. In addition, through these novels creation, Ou responded the discussion about how to build the Taiwanese new literature in the literary circles of Taiwan, and did the concrete practices about how to reflect the universality and the particularity of Taiwan. In 1950''s, as the government increased the mind control of cultural community, Ou Tan-Sheng’s creation was restricted. As a kind of coping method, he used Ding Shu-Nan as his pseudonym, but he also tried to concentrate more on the depiction of joys and sorrows of ordinary people than social critique and sarcasm style. Then, Ou stopped writing novels and turned to translate the writing skills in 1960''s, and he is the first one who translated and introduced the short short story theory into Taiwan literary field. Therefore, through collecting and analyzing his experiences and works, this thesis aims to locate Ou Tan-Sheng and his works in Taiwan literary history, and bring this less-studied figure into the field of literary studies. On one hand, this thesis investigates the track of his whole life and literary activities, to find out the inheritance and changes of his works. On the other hand, this thesis also puts Ou Tan-Sheng and his works into different kinds of the cultural fields, to understand his adjustment and persistence for the change of literary field. |
