Xiandai wenxue

Xiandai wenxue (Chinese: 現代文學; literally "Modern Literature"), was a Taiwanese literary journal created in 1960.

The journal was the brainchild of several National Taiwan University students, including Ouyang Tzu and Pai Hsien-yung. The journal published the literary debuts of several prominent Taiwanese writers, and emulated the Modernist style that was becoming fashionable in Taiwanese literature during the late-1950s and 1960s.
