Abstract Abstract:“Waidi”, usually indicates a place located beyond the country, bears the meaning of “colony” which is the outcome of the military invading and colonial expanding acts exerted by the Japanese imperialists in the modern history of Japan. It refers not only to a historical existence but a political geographic space. This article, based on the poetry made by Fuyue Anzai who once lived in a Japan belonged colonial city-Dalian in China, argues about the fact that Japanese Modernism Poetry did not originate domestically, but from “Waidi”— Dalian, China. This article analyzes the Political Geography metaphors in Fuyue Anzai’s poetry, and distinguishes the nature of invasion and colonization in Japanese Modernism Poetry. The study shows that Political Geography is a good point of view to study cross-border Japanese Modernism Poetry. By investigating Space-Time Narrative in Japanese Modernism Poetry from historical and geographical aspects, it could unfold the covered and forgotten truth in the Japanese Modernism Poetry history.
Key Words: view of Political Geography; “Waidi”; cross-border; Japanese Modernism Poetry; Fuyue Anzai; political metaphor
