Abstract

Taiwan's dietary literature has continued to develop qualitatively and quantitatively in the late 1990s and now has a solid status in Taiwanese literature. Dietary prose, which accounts for a large proportion of dietary literature, began to form its writer base in the 1970s. Representative writers include the first generation Liang Shiqiu(梁實秋, 1903-1987) and Tang Lusun(唐魯孫, 1907-1985), the second generation Lu Yaodong(逯耀東, 1933-2006), and the third generation Jiao Tong(焦桐, 1956-). While the first generation artists expressed their longing for their hometown through food, the second generation artists added historical elements to add social and cultural contexts. And the third generation writers is characterized by using various materials and styles. This paper examined the dietary prose of the second generation, Lu Yaodong, and analyzed the cultural identity of the 1.5th generation of mainlanders(外省人) and his writing as historians in his work. Lu Yaodong witnessed the rapidly changing values and ways of life of the ethnic community in modern society and projected his desire to preserve tradition in his dietary prose. He used historical knowledge and literary sensibility to capture the history and personal memories of dietary culture in his works. Through this, Lu Yaodong tried to strengthen the cultural identity of the Chinese people by recording cultural memories of dietary culture and passing them down to posterity.
