This paper is a study of the poetry of Walis Nokan, an Aboriginal writer of Taiwan's atayal tribe. In this paper, we analyzed the concept and definition of Aboriginal literature, the criticism of ethnic imagination and reality of the atayal tribe, the historical memory of atayal tribe and the identity of Aboriginal people, focusing on Walis Nokan's poetry ≪Missing My People(想念族人)≫. Aboriginal literature in Taiwan began in the late 1980s and began to create literary works in Chinese. Through their literary creation, they reflected the repression and discrimination of minority ethnic groups in Taiwan society. Walis Nokan is a member of the atayal tribe, a native of Taiwan, who is a creator of Aboriginal literature, an Aboriginal cultural critic, and an Aboriginal grassroots activist. Above all, Walis Nokan plays a critical role in the social reality of his family and races through various imaginations and rituals. They are criticizing the unequal social reality in which minority peoples are becoming tourist products in industrialization and modernization, while symbolizing various realistic critical poetry about their families and tribes and illuminating the reality of the atayal’s villages. In the poem of Walis Nokan, you can find out the phenomenon that you can look at the atayal's own language and lifestyle. Among the lifestyles of the atayal tribe, they reflect various cultural phenomena such as hunting, sword, face tattoos, rituals about birth and death, naming of lanterns, naming of longevity, and the culture of karaoke by industrialization and urbanization. In addition, in the poem of Walis Nokan, we can find works that illuminate past history memories and mental trauma through illuminating the Wushe(霧社) incident, which can be called anti-Japanese resistance movement of Taiwan minority people. It has a historical mission to recover the historical identity and cultural identity of the indigenous people with the intention of forever remembering their pride and indomitability as their indigenous people through poetry and prose creation on this case. In conclusion, the Aboriginal literature of Walis Nokan has a new literary position and meaning in the new literature history of Taiwan. Through his literary creation, he greatly improved the status of Aboriginal society and literature in Taiwan by illuminating the life and culture of indigenous people. When he discovered his identity as an indigenous person among the atayal tribe, he continued his Taiwanese Aboriginal movement while maintaining the cultural identity of the Taiwan.
