About
Established in 2016, Walis Nokan Digital Archive was funded by the National Museum of Taiwan Literature and constructed by the digital team at the National Chung Hsing University. With an introduction written by the writer himself, the archive presents the aboriginal writer Walis Nokan’s life and literature development with the technique of Timeline JS and contains detailed information, foreign translations, online reading of his works as well as related audio, video and research sources, showing the significance of the writer’s historical data and digital curating of Taiwanese literature. For online reading, the archive provides both the English and Chinese versions of the works “Ino’s Second Survey on the Spot,” “Atayal,” and “Journey of Mist” with the writer’s oral reading to enrich multi-media interpreting experience.
