框框內外——澳門現代散文研究三十年的回顧與對話

This article takes the literature review as the longitude, academic observation, initiative and discussion as the latitude. The Macau Prose studies over the past 30 years are divided into three categories: “historical essay”, “specialism” and “book review”, in order to portray a panoramic view of this academic landscape. There is only one historical essay reference of Macau Prose, which introduced the history of prose writing in Macau from 1950s to 1990s. Specialism is basically well-formed academic papers, mainly focusing on the two sub-topics as “female writing” and “newspaper supplement”. Book review is the most numerous one, with the characteristics of popularity, freedom and flexibility, which is not only highly related to the creation of prose, but also reflects the dependence on the ecology of newspaper. In all aspects or fields of prose creation, criticism and discourse in Macau, the existence of plural frameworks is an undeniable fact. Therefore, multidirectional perspectives have the necessity and value of practice.
