Abstract This thesis studies Chun-Ming Huang`s literature works, cross-disciplinary arts and their interactions and mobilities using life course approach. We analyze Huang`s literature works in chronological order of his life course, and find the position and the meaning of Huang`s cross disciplinary arts accordingly. Huang expressed his thinking through novels. His writing field changed from rural village to city and switched back from city to rural village. It showed his own life course – the relationship between himself and his home town and the interactions between. In his essays, he revealed his long term philosophy and worries. It also showed the most direct mobility between his life course and art works. In the aspect of cross disciplinary arts, Huang returned to I-lan with rich life experiences and strong community sense. Starting from culture and history works, he set foot in integrated community development. Once again he explored the communities in I-Lan and, with a more matured view, found what I-Lan got and lost in its modernization. All these led to his promotion of arts in I-Lan. In prompting Huang’s cross disciplinary arts, he established “Huang Da Yu Children’s Drama Society” for child education, held “elegant literature audience” activities, published a bimonthly magazine “9 rounds 18 turns”. His arts were static or dynamic. He put the art activities in the public’s daily life and built a culture industry with Huang’s own mark. Combing all these together, researchers interpret Huang’s life course, literature works, cross discipline creation in a concentric circles relations. In Huang’s young age, he was saved by literature. In Huang’s middle age, he was a writer whom internalized the spirits of literature. In Huang’s old age, he worked cross discipline arts based on literature. All in all, Huang’s art is the realization of his emotion, and literature is the treasure of his life. It enriches his characters, gives him energy for all the cross discipline works, and helps him to fulfill his own utopia. Key words: Huang Chun-Ming, Cross Discipline, Literature, Life Course
