Abstract

[This introductory chapter lays out the historiographical approach that this book adopts. Lin first identifies the research gap, and suggests how this work fills the gap along with the significance of the study. She then accounts for how adopting “Charismatic Movement” as the umbrella term enables her to negotiate between contextual needs while maintaining clarity as she presents the materials in the English language. This chapter then discusses the use of “Taiwanese” in this work, and explains the importance of such practice when engaging in Taiwan’s history, in light of the thriving “Taiwanese consciousness.” Lastly, this chapter explores ways in which this book incorporates oral history, from selection and execution to efforts taken to minimize power imbalances between the author and informants.]
