Project Background
Having observed the educational policies, cultural atmosphere, and publishing industry in Taiwan and Eastern Asia, we noticed…
1. Absence of Local English Publication:
For most Taiwanese students, it is highly likely that they have spent more time in English classes. In theory, this should lead to a more diverse language palette in literature. However, due to ineffective, exam-oriented English education policies, students are not encouraged to express themselves and create in a language for which they have invested a significant amount of time. Consequently, the absence of local English publications becomes a significant issue, limiting students’ growth and development in local literature.
2. The Concept of Taiwanese Literature Is Still Yet to Be Enriched :
Despite Taiwan’s rich cultural heritage and vibrant literary scene, the concept of Taiwanese literature is still in need of enrichment. Promoting second language writing in English and supporting local English writers is simply a crucial way to liberate creativity and bring the English language from school exams to everyday actualization. One must bear in mind that promoting local English writing is not intended to replace writing in Chinese. Instead, it serves as a complementary role in the realm of local literature.
Project Aims
Through Project Eärendil , we aim to publish and promote
Venture Your Story
Promoting English as Second Language (ESL) writers unlocks a world of diverse perspectives and unique voices. It empowers inclusivity and celebrates the richness of linguistic diversity. Through their content with cultural depth and global resonance, we then access a more interconnected and understanding world.
