The creations of Malaysia Chinese writers in Taiwan are abundant.Li Yongping and Zhang Guixing are the leaders of Malaysia Chinese writers in Taiwan,and their works reflect the creative characteristics of them.The writing of the post-loyalists’ writing is an important part of it.This article believes that the writing of the loyalists is a modern writing with the consciousness of the loyalists.As a special narrative ethics,the post-loyalists’ writing not only replaces the moral and ethical narratives of the loyalty to the emperor and serving the country in history,but also an expression of the experience of the post-loyalists living in the post-modern world.Putting it in the novel creation of Li and Zhang,it is firstly reflected in two dimensions of identity:Borneo writing as a "Nanyang" loyalists,and Chinese native writing as a "Shenzhou" loyalists.They use this to bridge the collapse of time and the loss of space-with fiction,the historical imagination that belongs to the post-loyalists can be shaped.Disenchantment is one of the aspects of writing for the post-loyalists of Malaysian Chinese writers in Taiwan.The disenchantment written by the postloyalists of this article is more inclined to historical disenchantment,pointing to individual or collective ceremonial projects facing historical debts.The novelist resisted the national narrative of Malaysia and the ideological narrative of Taiwan through the writing of the post-loyalists.Not only that,they also criticized imperialism and its modernity from the perspective of colonialism and postcolonialism.As a concrete text,Zhang Guixing’s "Wild Pig Crossing the River" reveals that between disenchantment and reenchantment,the trauma and healing of the post-loyalists are taking place.Mourning the passing away is another aspect of the writing of the post-loyalists.Mourning the passing away is not only mourning for those who have passed away,but also as a posture of the subject not only the helpless tribute of the post-loyalists in the face of historical fascination,but also facing the object of desire lost in the trajectory of time,the choice you know you can’t do.It is in this sense that the subject of writing faces the past through the three dimensions of childhood experience,aboriginal culture,and myths and legends,and directly refers to the most subtle and hidden dimension of human nature.This article draws on David Der-wei Wang’s concept of "post-loyalist" writing,and extends its scope to the writings of Taiwanese and Malaysian Chinese writers represented by Li Yongping and Zhang Guixing.At the same time,we will further explore and enrich the aesthetic connotation of the concept of " post-loyalist " writing,and discuss in depth the narrative ethics,aesthetic characteristics,and the ultimate concern of " post-loyalist " writing-how novelists shape loss,scarcity,death and other subject states into for the exploration of metaphysical propositions.
