摘要 The commonly encountered account of the postmodern (including postmodernist cultural practices) is the one based on (or very similar to) Fredric Jameson`s view of postmodernism as representing the logic of late capitalism and being defined by the issues of surface, pastiche and paranoia. This also includes Jameson`s criticism of postmodernism`s supposed ahistoricity (or belief that when it uses history, it does so in a naïve and sentimentally nostalgic way). Such is also the prevalent definition of the postmodern in Taiwan, most recently adopted, for example, in Liu Liangya`s new publication, Postmodernism and Postcolonialism: Taiwanese Fiction since 1987. Offering an alternative view, this article deploys Linda Hutcheon`s project of "problematics" of postmodernism to argue that as opposed to the more or less dualistic view of postmodern vs. postcolonial tendencies in contemporary Taiwanese fiction (especially as regards postmodernism`s relation to history) it is also possible to describe the constant revisiting of the past in numerous novels by different authors in post-martial-law Taiwan in terms of Hutcheon`s "postmodern historiographic metafiction." This thesis is further demonstrated by means of an analysis of a short story by Lai Xiangyin.
