The impact of modernity and the local world (culture) has been a focus of concerns among writers from the two sides of the Taiwan Strait. Our point is that both Hwang Chun-ming and Chang Wei construct an ideal native space in their works. For the former, it is out of a kind of ”Native ethics” and for the later, it comes from a kind of ”Native theology.” Confronting the monstrous force of modem civilization, their primary and actual experiences of the native lands become their distant but significant spiritual resources. Therefore, they both imply and employ a meaning of ”redemption.” Moreover these spiritual resources are nothing other than idealistic ”human nature” and ”morality.” Through describing the legendary local experiences, these two novelists reveal their aesthetics and thinking characteristics of local imaginary.
