On Certain Controversial Issues in the Recent Studies of Shi Lang
General Shi Lang's great contribution to history,i.e.,his military expedition to Penghu Islands,his Conquest of Taiwan,and his insistence in keeping Taiwan as part of China's territory,has long been highly acknowledged in related research-es.In recent years,however,there were various revisionist attempts in this field to denigrate him,distorting historical facts and making farfetched claims for the sake of vulgar politics.This paper aims to set the record right by tackling alleged controversies over issues such as the Battle of Penghu,Shi's position in the debate of abandoning Taiwan or keeping Taiwan,and his pleading with the Qing Court for the title of"Tianhou"to be bestowed to the sea goddess Mazu.
