Xiandai Wenxue (Chinese: 現代文學; literally "Modern Literature") was a Taiwanese literary journal created in 1960.[1] The journal was published on a bimonthly basis.[1]
The journal was the brainchild of several National Taiwan University students,[2] including Ouyang Tzu, Wang Wen-hsing and Pai Hsien-yung. The journal published the literary debuts of several prominent Taiwanese writers, and emulated the modernist style[1][3] that was becoming fashionable in Taiwanese literature during the late-1950s and 1960s. In 1973 the journal ended publication.[4]
