2006 12 137-178 The Various Viewpoints of Yao Ying s Jail-period Poems 137
Liao Mei-Yu Professor, Department of Chinese Literature, National Cheng Kung University Abstract Yao Ying was a government official in Taiwan for more than 10 years. That time was the year when western countries expanded their markets towards other parts of the world. This made Taiwan from an isolated island to important area by ambitious politicians. As a local official, Yao Ying made several plans and devices which clarified the oceans surrounding Taiwan and the characters of the island. At the same time, he was the first poet sentenced to jail. In order to read Yao Ying s jail-period poems as detailed as possible, this article is separated into two parts. The first part discusses how Yao Ying raised his voice on behalf of Taiwan. Because of him, Taiwan s land and people were recognized. In the age of redefining the World Map, the position of Taiwan was improved. A goal where the protection of land and people was considered as the most important was set. In the middle of a stormy and chaotic situation, he still wholeheartedly defended his position as a local government official. From this moment on we can read Yao Ying s poem from various viewpoints on the protection of Taiwan against England, on which he was sentenced to jail. The second part focuses on the poems and articles from the period when he lost his official position and was arrested, and the difference between these two kinds of literature texts. We will discuss it at three different parts. Firstly, The distinguishing between selecting talent and stopping jail by a government official and, Secondly, Public and private parts of jails in Taiwan. The last part is From the common fate of officials and the people to the appearance of Taiwan s point of view. Keywords: Yao Ying, Taiwan's jail, Taiwan's point of view, Reading viewpoint, Poet's writings 138
