Yeh Shih-tao (1925 - December 11, 2008) was a pioneering Taiwanese writer and historian, who specialized in the literary history of Taiwan and the lives of ordinary Taiwanese people. He was considered a seminal figure in Taiwanese literary criticism. Yeh Shih-tao was born in Tainan, Taiwan, in 1925 at a time when Taiwan was under Japanese rule. His early writings were in Japanese, but he switched to Chinese after the Nationalists under Chiang Kai-Shek gained control of Taiwan following the end of World War II. He was arrested by the Chiang Kai-Shek regime in 1951 and imprisoned for three years for allegedly harboring "communist agents." Author of No Land, No Literature, The Dilemmas of Taiwan Literature and History of Taiwanese Literature, he chronicled 300 years of the island's literary history and gained renown "for his searing portrayals of ordinary Taiwanese". His best known work was likely The Chronicle of Taiwanese Literature, a compilation of Taiwanese historical literature published in 1987.
