碩士 / 國立中正大學 / 台灣文學研究所 / 102 / The number of new immigrants in Taiwan has almost reached 0.5 million by April of 2014. In fact, new immigrants have become the fifth biggest group in Taiwan. Under this trend, there have been a number of relevant research documents concerning sociological studies. However, few papers have been done to explore this issue on literary, cultural and social dimensions revealed by juvenile novels.
Thus, this paper focused on the issue of new immigrants in Taiwan juvenile novels. By introducing “Saigong Kid” written by Zhang Yuyou as the observation object, this paper carried out detailed discussion of this example to explore not only the narrative strategy, writing techniques, literature aesthetics and character images but also four dimensions of the new immigrant issue referred to in the novel, namely ethnic, culture, gender and class.
For future researchers, comparison reading between the novel and its readers’ reviews on new immigrants is suggested,, so as to analyze the resonation and conflict between others’ reproduction and new immigrants’ own feelings, adding to the depth and scope of research. Meanwhile, it’s also preferred that writers in Taiwan will keep an unremitting attention on this issue and create more literary works regarding new immigrants. And new immigrants and their children are expected to come forward with their own biographies, making the leap from “be heard through voice of others” to “speak for themselves”. It’s our genuine wish that new immigrants would be accepted and treated with respect in Taiwan, assimilating into this new environment and even considering it the second home town someday.
