  • Perspectives on Taiwanese Identity in the Art of Chen Chieh-Jen and Wu Tien-Chang
    Naomi Kojen Research Intern National Chiao Tung University Supervisor: Joyce C.H. Liu Translating Collective Memory: Perspectives on Taiwanese identity in the art of Chen Chieh-jen and Wu Tien-chang This paper will address the phenomenon of artistic engagement with history, past and collective memory in Taiwanese contemporary art as a means of dealing with the question of Taiwanese identity. Even though this is a recurring strategy in the works of many artists, in this preliminary research I intend to focus on two prominent figures in Taiwanese contemporary art, Chen Chieh-jen (陈界仁) and Wu Tien-chang (呉天 章). The two artists selected have had long careers and evolved in terms of style, medium and aesthetics. Nevertheless, they are consistent in their engagement with the past, history and memory and the continuing discussion on issues of identity. While this paper is unable to fully represent the multifaceted identity of the Taiwanese artists, it aims to unravel the ways in which some key issues concerning Taiwanese identity are translated through these two rich artistic perspectives. Over the past fifty years, history and memory have gained traction in academic discourse, and concepts of collective, social and cultural memory have become central in both sociology and cultural history. The concept of collective memory was initially introduced by sociologist Maurice Halbwachs. Halbwachs introduced the idea that memory is a social structure, something which is acquired, recalled, recognized and localized in society. The framework of collective memory or social memory is therefore a result, sum and combination of individual members or multiple members of a society (Halbwachs,1992:38-39).

  • 1,000 Films to See Before You Die Published in the Guardian, June 2007
    1,000 Films to See Before You Die Published in The Guardian, June 2007 http://film.guardian.co.uk/1000films/0,,2108487,00.html Ace in the Hole (Billy Wilder, 1951) Prescient satire on news manipulation, with Kirk Douglas as a washed-up hack making the most of a story that falls into his lap. One of Wilder's nastiest, most cynical efforts, who can say he wasn't actually soft-pedalling? He certainly thought it was the best film he'd ever made. Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (Tom Shadyac, 1994) A goofy detective turns town upside-down in search of a missing dolphin - any old plot would have done for oven-ready megastar Jim Carrey. A ski-jump hairdo, a zillion impersonations, making his bum "talk" - Ace Ventura showcases Jim Carrey's near-rapturous gifts for physical comedy long before he became encumbered by notions of serious acting. An Actor's Revenge (Kon Ichikawa, 1963) Prolific Japanese director Ichikawa scored a bulls-eye with this beautifully stylized potboiler that took its cues from traditional Kabuki theatre. It's all ballasted by a terrific double performance from Kazuo Hasegawa both as the female-impersonator who has sworn vengeance for the death of his parents, and the raucous thief who helps him. The Addiction (Abel Ferrara, 1995) Ferrara's comic-horror vision of modern urban vampires is an underrated masterpiece, full- throatedly bizarre and offensive. The vampire takes blood from the innocent mortal and creates another vampire, condemned to an eternity of addiction and despair. Ferrara's mob movie The Funeral, released at the same time, had a similar vision of violence and humiliation.

Those who sought refuge in Taiwan with the KMT came to be known as the “mainlanders” or “ waishengren .” This paper will provide an overview of the research on waishengren in the past few decades, outlining various approaches and highlighting specific political and social context that gave rise to these approaches. Finally, it will propose a new research agenda based on a perspective of migration studies and historical/sociological analysis. The new approach argues for the importance of both history and agency in the study of waishengren in Taiwan.

Essay by JiuJiuJiu-Jiu ---HwaHwa Lo Upshur, Eastern Michigan University (([email protected]@[email protected]).edu ).).). Nations have spied on one another since the beginning of history, only the methods have changed, in part due to advances in technology. Aerial spying began with the deployment of balloons during the Franco- Prussian War (1870–71) and had progressed to satellite surveillance a mere century later. Much is known about the role of American U-2 surveillance planes and the information they obtained about Soviet bloc countries during the 1950s. However, less is known about the U-2 flights by the air force pilots of the Republic of China (henceforth ROC or Taiwan) and the data they obtained about the People’s Republic of China (henceforth PRC or China). The top secret collaboration between the United States and the ROC remained closely guarded until around 1990, after which the nature, duration, and extent of their cooperation gradually became known. Three recent books, one in English and two in Chinese, provide ex- tensive, hitherto unavailable details about the ROC’s U-2 missions and the pilots who flew them. Lost Black Cats: 1 Story of Two Captured U-2 Pilots 2 was written by H. Mike Hua, himself a former U-2 pi- lot who completed ten reconnaissance missions over mainland China. He later rose to the rank of lieute- nant general in the ROC Air Force, earned a doctorate at Purdue University, and worked in aircraft development after retiring from active service.
